N2  - This evaluation marks the ten-year anniversary of the establishment of Te Pūtahitanga o Te Waipounamu, formed in March 2014 as a legal partnership to reflect the aspirations of Te Waipounamu iwi for Whānau Ora.

The commissioning approach of Te Pūtahitanga o Te Waipounamu is unique, achieving social impact by investing directly in initiatives developed by whānau. The model
of commissioning is highly participatory and is based on the premise that people at the local level already have the ideas, knowledge, tools and capabilities required to create their own
innovative solutions to the challenges they experience in their communities. This evaluation reports on the Wave 17
investment of direct whānau commissioning between July 2023 to June 2024. Wave funding departs from investment in traditional service models to invest direc ly in whānau-led
enterprise and entrepreneurship, including support to build business and financial capability. (From the Executive summary). Record #9187
