Tane Manu has joined the Sustainable Taranaki tīma as an Education Coordinator for Te Ara Taiao o Kaitake Conservation Education project in the Kaitake rohe/region. He is heavily involved in his hapū environment work for Ngā Māhanga and Ngati Tairi, including both Pūniho Pā and Ōākura Pā, and has taught rangatahi/youth at WITT and Te Wananga o Aotearoa to deliver trades and hospitality/retail courses and spent the past year delivering the Kai Oranga program with his wife at Ōākura Pā.

With a deep passion for the environment, his drive comes from his whakapapa connections to the Maunga, Whenua, and Awa from within the Kaitake rohe/region and aspires to reconnect our future leaders to their inherited responsibility to protect our Taiao for generations to come.
