Kāhui Anamata's value proposition maps to five pillars that recur across NZ cultural funders' criteria. Each pillar is verifiable through the linked pages:
Visible operational Tiriti integration. NZQA Level 4 Bicultural Competency. Kaitiaki rōpū governance body.
WCAG 2.2 AA target. Trilingual production. Vibrotactile / haptic music production pipeline. NZSL hero in production.
Supabase RLS enforced per-row. Te Mana Raraunga CARE principles operational. Append-only consent log. Withdrawal within 30 days. Three citable methodology papers in the public docs.
Active opportunities Anamata researchers and partners monitor. Full eligibility + selection criteria + named precedents at /research/scholarships/portfolio.
Every cultural decision has a documented consent lineage. Kaitiaki rōpū governance means reviewers are accountable to iwi, not to the label. Withdrawal requests honoured within 30 days. The risk profile is materially lower than ad-hoc cultural production.
The platform itself is released under MIT. A grant that funds this platform builds public-good infrastructure that other iwi can adopt. Investment is permanent, not amortised into a single campaign.
Schema and evidence surface designed to satisfy Creative NZ, Education NZ, NZ On Air, and takiridevelopments simultaneously. One investment serves many subsequent rounds.
Every grant received, applied for, and pending is published at /funding. No funder needs to ask where money went.
