People, land and belonging - Kainga - a podcast by RNZ

In his new book Kainga Dr Paul Tapsell says too often Maori become alienated from their ancestral identity. He founded Maori.maps.com to help reconnection. The digital web service is particularly helping reconnect connecting urban-raised Maori youth to their ancestral communities. Dr Tapsell (Te Arawa, Tainui) is a museum curator, ethnographer and anthropologist. He's also former director Maori at the Auckland War Memorial Museum, and a former Dean of the University of Otago's Te Tumu School of Maori, Pacific & Indigenous Studies
