NATIVE NATIONS UNITED - cultural exchange
Native Nations United is a cultural exchange programme that is designed to use regenerative indigenous tourism as a vehicle to support and uplift local communities and operators, provide pathways for indigenous youth to connect and reconnect, while mapping out authentic tourism packages and pathways for future international visitors to follow in the footsteps of our ancestors, in a culturally safe and respectful way.
The Kohutapu Lodge & Tribals Tours team are the creators, masterminds, driving force and a Platinum Sponsor of the annual exchange, that has already seen incredible success and results in New Zealand and across the world.
In 2024, the Native Nations United Exchange travelled through North & Central Queensland - Australia, Rotorua & Bay of Plenty - New Zealand and British Columbia - Canada.
