Mai i Kurawaka
The whakapapa of the word ikura reminds us that the first woman was formed at Kurawaka. Based on pūrākau and mātauranga Māori, this programme restores the mana of menstruation and challenges colonial shame. We explore traditional and modern period practices, including reusable options, while honouring the tapu and life-giving role of ikura in our whakapapa.
