Ara Poutama Aotearoa, the Department of Corrections, with the support of Manatū Taonga, the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, has set aside $3 million to fund a range of creative arts and cultural wellbeing programmes in prisons between 2022 and 2024/2025.
Ara Poutama Aotearoa acknowledges the value of creative arts and cultural programmes for people in prison to support their rehabilitation and reintegration. Access to the arts is considered by many to be a human right. Music, dance, theatre, painting, weaving, carving (to name a few) can give people new ways to express themselves, reconnect them with their culture, provide a positive learning experience and prosocial relationships.
This fund aligns with our Hōkai Rangi strategy to better understand ‘what works and why’ - especially for Māori, and to achieve better outcomes for people in prison.
