HEALTHY HOMES
AND MARAE

Integration, Innovation and Engagement
(WIIE) Fund have supported Te Hauora o
Türanganui ä Kiwa (Türanga Health) to
develop a healthy homes tool-kit.
information and steps for whänau to
maintain a healthy home. This project
enabled Türanga Health to complete at
least 96 household assessments. Türanga
Health has built on their relationships with
service providers to negotiate economies of
scale strategies with service providers and
tradesmen.
The healthy homes tool-kit builds on an
energy efficiency project, implemented by
Türanga Health and Te Tairäwhiti, which
provided sustainable options for energy
production and usage in the Manutuke
community, including Manutuke Marae.
While this project enabled the Marae to
investigate the feasibility of solar energy as an
energy source, it highlighted the importance of
insulation as an energy efficient pre-requisite
for any dwelling, including households and
Marae. Türanga Health formed a working
relationship with private Insulation provider
Climatize and enabled the employment
of several rangatahi Mäori to undertake
insulation instalments in 200 homes (as
featured in the previous issue of Kökiri).
