"...The word I have coined in te reo Māori for autism is ‘Takiwātanga’. It is a derivation of my phrase for autism: “tōku/tōna anō takiwā” – “my/his/her own time and space.." ~ Keri Opai.
Takiwātanga Ki Te Ao embraces autism and the diversities which encompasses the autism spectrum. As Māori with our own taonga takiwātanga, we are continually growing with his specific unique needs daily. We understand and embrace the complexities of takiwātanga and every individual uniqueness.
