Our name – Aukaha – comes from a traditional Kāi Tahu chant, recited by our tīpuna as they tightened the lashings of their waka before setting out on a journey.

Kia kaha, au kaha – unite and bind together. We’ve chosen this name because it represents our role, strengthening relationships between manawhenua and local and central government, sector partners and businesses across the takiwā.
