Foreword from <strong>the</strong> <strong>Taskforce</strong> E te Minita Tēnā koe We are pleased to present you with <strong>the</strong> report <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Taskforce</strong> for Whānau-Centred Initiatives. Since our first meeting on 24 June 2009, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Taskforce</strong> has been privileged to hear <strong>the</strong> views <strong>of</strong> hundreds <strong>of</strong> New Zealanders and to read more than a hundred written submissions. As a result we are confident <strong>the</strong>re is strong support for <strong>the</strong> kaupapa, and enthusiasm for a fresh approach that will bring demonstrable benefits. We have been especially impressed by <strong>the</strong> high level <strong>of</strong> optimism around <strong>the</strong> country and are confident that <strong>the</strong> time is right to forge new pathways that will contribute to <strong>the</strong> empowerment <strong>of</strong> whānau. Our report recognises <strong>the</strong> transformations that have occurred in te ao Māori over <strong>the</strong> past two decades and acknowledges <strong>the</strong> innovative capacity <strong>of</strong> iwi, Māori communities and Māori practitioners to meet new challenges, embrace new technologies and model new practices. Those same attributes will be pivotal in implementing <strong>the</strong> recommendations made in our report. But we have also indicated that assurances will be required from a number <strong>of</strong> government departments and a spirit <strong>of</strong> collaboration must be embedded between funders, providers, practitioners and whānau. In that respect, <strong>the</strong> positive and optimistic interest shown from a wide range <strong>of</strong> agencies and communities has given us every reason to believe that <strong>the</strong> necessary goodwill and commitment will be forthcoming. Minister, our work has been greatly influenced by <strong>the</strong> resilience, determination and aspirations <strong>of</strong> whānau all over <strong>the</strong> country and we are conscious <strong>of</strong> our obligations to <strong>the</strong>m. If <strong>the</strong>re is a single conclusion to our deliberations it is that <strong>the</strong> potential within whānau has never been greater, and unleashing that potential will not only bring benefits to Māori but will add greatly to <strong>the</strong> nation and to <strong>the</strong> prospects <strong>of</strong> future generations.
