Description:

The New Zealand Geographic Board has recently accepted City Rail Link and Auckland Transport's proposal to rename Britomart as Waitematā station. Professor Robin Kearns is an advocate for renaming places around Aotearoa New Zealand that better reflect the local history as opposed to being named after people and places with little or no relevance to the land. Simon began by asking Professor Kearns why it is important to embrace Māori renaming in Aotearoa New Zealand.
