NZYWF: Te Ao Kāi Tahu: writing the whenua and whakapapa of Te Waipounamu

The land holds our stories. In conversation with Tessa Patrick (Kāi Tahu), writers Rauhina Scott-Fyfe (Kāi Tahu, Kāti Māmoe, Ngāi Pākehā), Tōrea Scott-Fyfe (Kāi Tahu, Kāti Mamoe, Waitaha), and Iona Winter (Waitaha, Kāi Tahu) explore the vast and intergenerational perspectives of this land, its history, and its future, and how writers — regardless of their whakapapa — can delve deeper into this whenua within their work. This kōrero is for anyone seeking to understand a unique way of telling stories with curiosity and fervent intent.
