A charism is a way of seeing, being and doing.
The Challenge 2000 charism seeks to make the Gospel real through:
We believe that โlove worksโ. We strive to respond positively, go the extra mile, and relate to those in need as more than just clients. Challenge 2000 is a whฤnau committed to bringing people together and helping each other grow. We believe that change is possible and do what we can to grow hope.
Challenge 2000โs commitment to bi-culturalism is informed by kaupapa and tฤซkanga Mฤori. Specifically, our work is guided by four tฤซkanga that complement our charism:
ฤhurutanga: creating a safe and nurturing space for whฤnau and young people
Kaitiakitanga: guarding and enhancing peopleโs mana, beliefs, hopes, and dreams
Whฤnaungatanga: fostering authentic relationships with whฤnau and young people grounded in manaakitanga
Wairuatanga: honouring othersโ whakapapa, world-views and belief systems, including the unseen and unspoken energies between those past and present
