About us
Seed Waikato is a registerd charity (CC55322 ) with a dream to empower young people to thrive. Founded in 2017, we are focused on connecting and growing 18-30(ish) year olds with inspirational events, and with our online platform, the home of young culture. Seed Waikato started with a couple of young people in the Waikato asking each other a question: What’s missing from young culture? We soon learned that we weren’t the only ones asking. Across the Waikato we can feel the energy. Young people are searching for opportunities to thrive. Chances to connect and grow. Find like-valued people. Fun things to do. And events with purpose. Young people want to hear from inspirational mentors. Have access to empowering resources. Give back to our community. Seed Waikato is a movement that aims to unite young people under a common vision. To build a collective who redefine what it means to be young, here and now. Who challenge, inspire, and encourage each other. We want to create and highlight the spaces and opportunities needed to make the vision a reality. Our vision is a vibrant Waikato for young people, powered by young people. The future is ours for the making if we start now. The call out is to you, the 18-30(ish) year olds of our region, to join us in co-creating a Waikato where young people thrive!

🌱 Systems Change | Championing Indigenous Perspectives & Wellbeing | Strategic Visionary in Youth & Community Development | Photographer & Facilitator
Had the honor of speaking at this lunch time series today about “Enabling Systems Change Leadership” hosted by SASS; a systems change advocacy group. Last year SASS published a non-white paper called Voices From The Frontlines which focused on community driven pathways for systems change in Aotearoa. I’ve been fortunate from my mahi in Seeds for Change & Seed Waikato to get connected with SASS & be apart of the ropu sharing my haerenga & experience as a change champion and learning from the waahine within the group. 💎 My biggest gem of the session was the practice of sharing my stories. I am learning how to share my life & experiences with others in my own way. I often get caught up in translating but am learning to embody and practice my way of sharing with an open heart and without judgement. Teenei te mihi kia koutou ngaa kaiwhakarite me nga kaikoorero. 🙌 Jade Tang-Taylor for your awesome facilitation and the way you hold space for others. 🩵Annie Ualesi: for sharing your beautiful emotions & your calling through “Called” with your Samoan whaanau. 🌱Jane Zintl: for the amazing mahi you do in Ara Taiohi weaving together the ecosystems of youth workers & contributors. Keep an eye out for more of the lunchtime series if you want to learn more about the findings & hear stories from the people and the communities in practice.
Join us for the next online session of our SASS group's monthly Learning Lunches series! This month's topic is 'Enabling Systems Change Leadership', the first of the five pathways outlined in the SASS non-white paper Voices from the Frontlines: Community-driven Pathways for Systems Change in Aotearoa. We will be joined by Jahvaya Wheki, Jane Zintl, and Annie Ualesi to unpack this topic and share their experiences in systems change leadership. Wednesday, 31 July, 12pm. Zoom link acquired through registration. Pack your lunch, feed your mind, and join us for this exciting kōrero!
