A Te Arawa iwi, Ngati Whakaue, has launched a new website so members of the tribe can stay connected to home, where ever they are in the world.
Committee chairperson Anaru Te Amo says the iwi wants to build a digital portal repository of the tribes living culture.
He says the website provides a host of useful information, gives whanau the chance to have their say about issues, and has stories and waiata from many marae.
Mr Te Amo says the website also provides information about the Treaty of Waitangi Settlement Process, and there's a section for registered members to source information relating to whakapapa and land matters.
He says he'd like feedback to what's on the website, www.whakaue.org, so it can be continually improved.
