Every right entails a duty. Every Māori person has duties (ngā here, obligations) to Papatūanuku, Whakapapa, and Hapori (just for starters). Te Tiriti protects Māori capability to exercise those duties. Te Tiriti establishes rights for Tangata Tiriti, the price includes duties to Tangata Whenua.

When facing the "All we need is STEM!" approach to education, my usual response is: Developing the vaccine was the STEM problem; distribution & getting shots in arms was the Social Science problem; getting people to trust it & combatting misinformation was the Humanities problem-- which did we fail?
