wa Wahine is more than a magazine; it’s a korowai of kōrero and toi to resonate with your ngākau and light a fire in your puku—lovingly crafted by wāhine Māori and Pacific artists and writers.

Our fifth issue, Rima, is our best issue yet. It features astrology with the stars, fertility journeys, creative and entrepreneurial life, and more. Plus, a new Patupaiarehe comic, change-making wāhine and taonga tino rangatiratanga.

“Awa Wahine is one of the very few magazines covering kaupapa that will leave you/your mā/sis/friend feeling better at the end. The beautiful imagery, thick tactile pages, intelligent wānanga, and wairua-uplifting insights are best enjoyed with a cuppa in a shaft of afternoon sunlight wearing your comfiest kākahu/clothes, appropriate snacks within reach.”
