摘要：In Aotearoa New Zealand 14 national parks have been created, encompassing the most spectacular mountains, rivers, lakes, coastlines and forests in the country. They constitute a major component of the conservation estate ¨C an estate that lies over 30 per cent of the country¡¯s landmass. The estate is owned by the Crown and for the most part exclusively managed by a Crown body, the Department of Conservation. The purpose of this address is to explore whether Maori, the Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa New Zealand, have a legal right to challenge the Crown¡¯s ownership and management of national parks.
