This Budget 2019 initiative provides funding for the Māori Housing Network to invest in additional papakāinga (Māori collectively owned homes), housing repairs, and capability building programmes. It will raise Māori intergenerational wellbeing by taking a whānau-led approach to addressing housing and wider community needs.

Nearly 90 projects have been approved, including investment in Māori housing repair programmes in Te Tai Tokerau, Te Tairāwhiti, Waikato and Taranaki.

Work continues to complete the 2020/20 community repair programmes and all active projects will be reviewed to ensure they are on track for delivery by 30 June 2021.
