Adult Solar Workshops
Since July 2024, Kia Kotahi Ako has worked with These Hands GSSE, Tolaga Bay Inn Charitable Trust (TBICT), and Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT) Adult Community Education Program to deliver a solar workshop series for adults in the Tairāwhiti region.
Energy Resilience for Tairāwhiti
“Engaging the community well means getting them to think about their households, calculate the energy their appliances use, and build solar units that can power their real-world needs in a region where many people, by choice or by necessity, live off the grid.” - Workshop Facilitator, Thabiso Mashaba
