Up Takuvaine Valley with Liam Koka’ua

Written By Te Puna Vai Mārama

TPVM and Te Ipukarea Society (TIS) recently joined an excursion up the Takuvaine Valley, guided by visiting Kuki PhD student Liam Kokaʻua.

Kokaʻua, a Pacific Studies doctoral candidate at the University of Auckland, is researching the oral histories of Takuvaine Valley while exploring both the opportunities and challenges of revitalising its taro terraces (pond fields) within the valley’s water catchment.
