Our Vaka Mālosi Youth Employment Programme helps rangatahi find their strengths, explore career opportunities, prepare for the job market, and develop the skills needed for success.
Vaka Mālosi draws inspiration from the rich cultural traditions of Pasifika and Māori, symbolizing strength (malosi) and navigation (vaka). In career development, self-efficacy—the belief in one’s ability to succeed—is a cornerstone. Just as our ancestors relied on the stars to guide their way, this programme serves as a vessel for rangatahi to chart their own path toward a brighter future.
The vaka represents their personal journey, and malosi embodies the inner strength they bring as they navigate toward their aspirations.
Through tailored workshops, Vaka Mālosi helps rangatahi find their strengths, explore career opportunities, prepare for the job market, and develop the skills needed for success.
Vaka Mālosi includes:
The ultimate goal is employment—your final destination on this journey of growth and self-discovery.
Let’s help you harness your malosi and navigate toward your aspirations!
