We value the ideas young people have for making their environment more awesome. By using design to engage taitamariki (young people) we hope to walk alongside them from exclusion, to inclusion, to greatness.
The ĀKAU Foundation strives to empower taitamariki around Aotearoa to feel more connected and creative so that they can navigate the future with confidence. We help taitamariki recognize and harness the creativity of their tupuna by involving them in tangible projects that have real impact for taitamariki, their whānau and their community.
The Foundation is connected to the ĀKAU Studio which is a unique design and architecture practice that places people and community at the heart of our projects. Profits from the Studio help fund more opportunities for young people.
