MAIHI & Māori housing
Te Tūāpapa Kura Kāinga – Ministry for Housing and Urban Development is committed to advancing the housing and urban development outcomes of Māori.
Māori and Iwi Housing Innovation (MAIHI) - Framework for Action
Supporting iwi and Māori to find and keep safe, secure, healthy and affordable housing is essential to reducing the numbers of Māori becoming homeless.

Te Kāhui Kāinga Ora – a dedicated Māori housing group
Māori are disproportionately impacted by the housing crisis and have been for generations. Aotearoa needs large-scale change, with a specific focus on Māori housing, across the housing system.
Te Kāhui Kāinga Ora is our Māori housing group, which exists to provide strong, coordinated leadership and programmes across government. We’re working to advance Māori housing outcomes, in partnership with:
- Whānau, hapū and iwi
- Te Puni Kōkiri
- Kāinga Ora
- Other agencies across the housing system.
This collaborative approach has led to developing the MAIHI - Framework for Action and the MAIHI Partnerships Programme.
