Birthed into the Maori culture, the indigenous people of New Zealand, Jeanine and Claudette have a heartfelt passion in promoting indigenous cultures and cultural diversity. Based on recent research, a gap has been identified between the present educational curriculum and the value that indigenous and different cultures hold. In response, the authors set up the “I Love to Grow” institute, creating numerous education programmes and engaging stories, that foster the appreciation of cultural differences, while promoting good values and developing mindful behaviour.
