Community Guidelines

Manaakitanga (Behaviour that uplifts the mana of others)

The majority of our organisers are rangatahi (young people) guided by coaches and mentors. They will always treat you with respect, and we expect the same courtesy in return. We reserve the right to cancel or suspend accounts that do not adhere to these guidelines.

Responsibilities

Your Role and Ours

Projects on Koha Tree are not owned by us; we simply provide the platform for them to be led and managed. If you have any questions or concerns about an individual project, please reach out directly to the organiser of that project.

Our Commitment to Te Reo Māori

Why We Use Te Reo Māori

We use te reo Māori wherever possible on this site as part of our commitment to the revitalisation of a language that was nearly forcibly removed from Aotearoa and the world. We won't make any apologies for this, but strive to always provide translations. If we forget to, please remind us - we're human too!

Updates and Changes

Staying Informed

We're continually improving Koha Tree, so expect changes throughout the year. We'll keep you updated via our Substack newsletter here. For significant updates, we'll contact you directly via email.
