The future of the Mâori language was the subject of a claim before the Waitangi Tribunal in 1985. Find out how the resulting decision helped the resurgence of te reo Mâori from late last century: www.nzhistory.net.nz/node/2281
Now over 130,000 people of Mâori ethnicity speak and understand te reo Mâori. Read about the language’s decline and revival: www.nzhistory.net.nz/node/968
