Welcome to Hon @TraceyMartinMP at #LIANZA19
The vision for this year’s conference asks you all to share, gift, reciprocate and collaborate using the elements of vā feiloa’i (respectful relationships), māfana (warmth), ofa (love), mālie (humour) through talanoa (shared dialogue). @TraceyMartinMP Minister Martin is the first minister to open the LIANZA conference in 9 years.
Librarians hold the knowledge so it's a brave government that ignores librarians! say the minister.
