Alternative Education and Youth Development in Aotearoa/New Zealand | Te Kura Tāwhai me te Whakawhanake Taiohi i Aotearoa

Abstract

[From introduction] This resource has been developed by a group of AE practitioners and youth development specialists who are passionate about mana enhancing education (development and learning) for all rangatahi within Aotearoa. We’re very grateful to the philanthropic sector (especially the Vodafone New Zealand Foundation and the Wayne Francis Charitable Trust) who have seen high value in the AE sector since its inception, and who have helped to sustain the sector, and made this resource possible. Without the passion of AE educators and champions, many rangatahi would have failed to thrive - and we acknowledge that thriving through the ability to access quality education is a basic human right.
