Introducing Ayla Hoeta
Ayla Hoeta is a kaiāwhina - a Lecturer - with Waipapa Taumata Rau, the University of Auckland. She’s a māmā of two teenage sons, with whākapapa roots connected to the south of Tāmaki Makaurau.
Carrying a deep understanding of racial segregation, poverty and the inequality rooted in Aotearoa, Ayla has sought to heal the generational wounds ingrained into our tangata whenua - the people of our land - by connecting to her identity.
As part of this healing, Ayla has helped to develop a framework called Hautū Waka; a navigational framework rooted in mātauranga Māori that you can use to help navigate complexity.
Hautū Waka encourages us to switch our thinking from human-centred design to whānau and whakapapa-centred design; rooting our decisions in ancient knowledge.
