  1. #OnlineEvent - #Aotearoa / #NewZealand - Why can't I fix my washing machine?

    15 Sept 2026, 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

    "How New Zealanders are getting a bad deal on repair – and what the UK shows is possible.

    When a washing machine fails, dirty laundry piles up while owners wait weeks for an authorised repairer. Even simple faults can become expensive repairs once call-out fees and labour charges are added.

    Yet many common repairs are straightforward. Replacing a door gasket, detergent hose or drain pump doesn't require specialist qualifications – just basic tools, practical skills, and access to the right information and parts.

    So why is repair support so difficult to access?

    We investigated ten popular washing machine brands in New Zealand, grading each manufacturer on whether owners can access repair manuals and purchase spare parts. We found a pattern of barriers that prevent owners from carrying out simple repairs themselves.

    Then we repeated the investigation in the UK using the same manufacturers.

    The results were dramatically different. Many brands that restrict repair support in New Zealand provide UK consumers with detailed manuals, online parts catalogues, stock availability and direct ordering.

    The barriers to repair are not technical or logistical. Manufacturers already have the systems needed to support repair – they simply choose not to make them available to New Zealand consumers.

    The webinar will be recorded and shared with registered participants."

  7. You are warmly invited into a #cinematic journey with Mauri: The Vital Essence in All Beings.

    #Mauri is a powerful #documentary #film that invites us into the living world of #Māori #healing. Guided by #elders and lineage holders, the film weaves land, language, and ceremony into a story of #intergenerational care and #ancestral remembering. Filmed in Aotearoa, Mauri honors the sacred ways that continue even in the wake of #colonization and offers a profound glimpse into the resilience of #cultural memory and connection.

    Join us for Mauri #GlobalFilmPremiere + 5-Day LIVE #OnlineEvent with #MāoriElders - October 14–18 →
    theeternalsong.org/mauri/

    Mauri: The Vital Essence in All Beings is the latest offering in our Wisdom of the Ancestors 12-film series, a living body of work shaped by #Indigenous knowledge, deep listening, and ancestral continuity.

    The film invites us into stories that reach, beyond explanation, into embodied teachings, and generational healing work. As part of this gathering, you’ll be welcomed into daily live sessions and receive a rare workshop with Atarangi Muru, a world-renowned Māori healer whose practice has supported communities across the globe.

    These gatherings bring you into direct connection with the voices and presences featured in Mauri:

    Atarangi Muru, a respected healer whose life’s work carries #RongoāMāori into communities across #Aotearoa and the world

    Mark Kopua, tā moko master and guardian of ancient story traditions

    Donna Kerridge, trauma therapist and educator working with nervous system intelligence and land-based healing

    Tina Ngata, international advocate for Indigenous, environmental, and human rights

    Tāngaroa Ngaropo-Tāwio, Māori scholar, spiritual practitioner, and cultural leader dedicated to reviving ancestral knowledge

    Tohe Ashby, Rongoā Māori Healer recognized for developing treatment for kauri tree dieback disease using traditional knowledge and whalebone

    Erin Matariki Carr, lawyer and currently a project lead at RIVER, where she focuses on the constitutional transformation movement in Aotearoa

    Stan Conrad, one of the foremost captains of Māori ocean voyaging, a leader in the wisdom and practices of Māori navigation and vessels

    Each session opens a portal into ancestral intelligence — revealing relational systems of care, healing, and spiritual grounding that respond to our entangled modern crises.
