Welcome to Huri Noa
Bring clarity to your community schedule.
Built for Contributors coordinating events across communities, so Uri get clearer event visibility. No more spreadsheets, group chats, or wall planners.
Who it's for
Built for Māori communities
Supporting the coordination needs of iwi, hapū, and marae across Aotearoa.
PSGE / Iwi
Post-Settlement Governance Entities coordinating across multiple hapū and marae
Hapū
Sub-tribal groups managing their own events while staying connected to the wider iwi
Marae
Community hubs hosting hui, wānanga, and celebrations throughout the year
How it works
What you can do now
Simple tools to help you coordinate better.
Create
Plan events easily with a clean calendar interface. Add details, set times, and assign to your community.
Align
See clashes before they happen. When your event overlaps with another community, you'll know instantly.
Inform
Keep members informed with a clear view of what's coming up across all their linked communities.
Privacy by design
Each community controls their own events. Contributors can see when other communities have events (to avoid clashes), but only the community name and time are visible — no details, no locations. Your kaupapa stays yours.
Own events: full details
Other events: name + time only
No public access

Our Vision
For funders and supporters
Huri Noa addresses a real coordination gap for Māori communities in the post-settlement landscape. Many PSGE, hapū, and marae are managing events across multiple teams with no shared visibility — resulting in clashes, confusion, and missed opportunities for whānau.
The problem
5 teams using 5 wall planners. No coordination. Events clash. Whānau miss out.
The opportunity
A shared, privacy-respecting platform that makes coordination the default, not the exception.
Clash-free event coordination with culturally appropriate privacy controls. We're building Huri Noa for our communities.
