Gabrielle Huria

Gabrielle Huria is Ngāi Tūāhuriri / Ngāi Tahu. She lives with her extended whānau at Tuahiwi in North Canterbury. Gabrielle is a keen practitioner of Ngāi Tahu mahinga kai (traditional food gathering). Gabrielle is the Chief Executive of Te Kura Taka Pini. Her collection of poems Pakiaka is part family chronicle and part a settling of accounts – a depiction of being Ngāi Tahu in a modern world.

You can find Gabrielle’s book at UBS – University Bookshop Canterbury.
