Māori people enjoy seeing their language in use as part of everyday life; it helps them to relate to their environment and gives them a feeling of belonging. Using the language as part of your organisation's branding is one way of meeting the needs of Māori speaking clients.
This page is catalogues official Māori language names or bi-lines that have been adopted by public and private groups. It is not a definitive list and we ask any organisation we may have missed to contact Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori to ensure they are included.
