Concern for the protection and management of the whenua/land was the inspiration for The Landscape Foundation’s publication Kia Whakanuia te Whenua.
Global and local impacts such as climate change, biodiversity loss, water pollution and structural issues such as government policy and neoliberal economics are affecting global and local habitats as well as how we perceive, relate to and care for them. This is at the heart of issues for landscape practitioners, Māori, ecologists, and many others.
Kia Whakanuia te Whenua is both a celebration and a call to action - to honour our land and to rekindle creative, respectful ways of living with Her.
This Maori-led work presents a rich collection of visual essays, papers, poetry and polemics that challenge the way we think about environment, land and landscape in a changing world: te ao hurihuri. Its aim is to advocate for the land, to oust complacency.
Kia Whakanuia te Whenua seeks to stimulate interdisciplinary thinking and knowledge. It is critical reading for planners, policymakers, students and practitioners in land and water management, and for those who are willing to listen to the land and what it can teach us.
