Huihui mai e te motu!

HUI TĀNE National Māori Men's Mental Health & Wellbeing Conference 2025!

Join us from July 1-3, 2025, at Te Rangi Aniwaniwa, Te Hiku o te Ika for a transformative experience dedicated to the mental health and the wellbeing of Tāne Māori.

It’s time.

After more than a decade, we’re bringing Māori men back together to wānanga, connect, and rebuild the movement. This isn’t about fixing you, it’s about finding strength in the kaupapa, in each other and reminding ourselves who we are.

“We are still losing too many brothers to cultural disconnection, drugs and alcohol, violence, incarceration, depression & su***de. There are many good programmes around Aotearoa, but our networks have frayed, and our connections have been lost. We need to bring good people and good kaupapa back to the table, rebuild the network and re-establish the connections. We need our brothers to know that we care about them, and we will be here for them, hakoa ko wāi hakoa nō hea tū te ao, tū te pō” - Hone Harawira

🗓️ Highlights include:

🔥 Kōrero from Hone Harawira, Mike King, and Dave Letele.

💬 Workshops on the real stuff - violence, addiction, identity, healing.

🎣 Fishing comps, Tāne Olympics, Hakari, and a night to celebrate us.

📍 Te Rangi Aniwaniwa, Te Hiku o te Ika

Bring your brothers. Bring your truth. Let’s wānanga.

Tuakana-Teina: Strengthening the Next Generation

The Circle of Brothers was privileged to visit Te Kura Takiwā o Mangonuiōwae this week, delivering a kauhau to the young brothers in the West. As a brotherhood and support network committed to being role models for the next generation of tāne, this was more than just a visit—it was a chance to uplift, inspire, and reinforce the values that shape us.

We shared our COB philosophies of kotahitanga, the power of brotherhood, and the responsibility to lead with integrity. Seeing the spark in our rangatahi, knowing we could fill their cups while filling our own, reminded us why we do this mahi.

We stand as the Brothers of Change, lifting as we climb.. Full ⭕️ mentality!

Brothers ⭕️f Change – Strengthening the Next Generation

The C ⭕️ B's were privileged to visit Broadwood Area School this week, delivering a kōrero with purpose to the young brothers in the West. As a brotherhood and support network committed to being role models for the next generation of tāne, this was more than just a visit—it was a chance to uplift, inspire, and reinforce the values that shape us.

Through the Tuakana-Teina model, we shared our COB philosophies—strength in unity, the power of brotherhood, and the responsibility to lead with integrity. Seeing the spark in our Taitamatāne, knowing we could fill their cups while filling our own, reminded us why we do this mahi and want to grow in this area.

This is just the beginning. We will be back. Because change is built through consistency, connection, and commitment. We stand as Brothers of Change—leading by example, lifting as we climb.
