​Matapopore Charitable Trust was formed in the wake of the earthquakes to provide cultural advice and guidance to the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority. Matapopore was mandated by Te Ngāi Tūāhuriri Runanga to ensure that Ngāi Tūāhuriri/Ngāi Tahu values, aspirations and narratives are realised within the built form of the post earthquake recovery of Christchurch. Matapopore was initially mandated by Ngāi Tūāhuriri to embed these values and narratives in the CERA 'Anchor Projects'.
