Reclaiming a language is a slow-burning process, both deeply personal and intricately connected to the socio-economic, historical and political conditions in which we live.

Author Biography

Awanui Te Huia (Ngati Maniapoto) is a researcher and lecturer at the School of Maori Studies Te Kawa a Maui. She has a PhD in psychology that focuses on factors that support heritage language development for Maori learners of te reo Maori. As well as focusing on Maori language learning, she also researches the ways in which Maori and Pakeha learn about colonial history, and how such knowledge contributes to our concepts of biculturalism in Aotearoa. In 2019, for Te Matawai, she led the project Manawa u ki te reo Maori.
