Hermione McCallum-Haire
Associate, Tūwharetoa, Maniapoto, Raukawa, Ngāti Haaua
Hermione is a change-maker and an innovator who champions indigeneity, equity, humans and emerging disruptive technology. By creating and driving a social outcomes procurement model she has co-led implementation of sustainable outcomes within local government.
Before moving to Tāmaki Makaurau, she was born and raised in the big smoke of Taumarunui in the heart of the King Country. Whakapapa connects her to Tūwharetoa, Maniapoto, Raukawa and Ngāti Haaua, and it is whakapapa which drives her to lead transformative projects that positively impact and produce better outcomes for Iwi Māori across the motu.
She believes that the power of community, partnership and innovation can help each of us to contribute to better outcomes for Aotearoa.
