<div>'''Kaitiaki''' is a [[New Zealand]] term used for the [[Māori]] concept of [[guardianship]], for the [[sky]], the [[sea]], and the land. A [[kaitiaki]] is a guardian, and the process and practices of protecting and looking after the [[Natural environment|environment]] are referred to as [[kaitiakitanga]] and include [[rāhui]] and [[tapu]]<ref>[http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/nqfdocs/units/pdf/17791.pdf ''"Environmental Tourism Māori"'', NZQA unit standard]</ref><br />
<br />
The term [[kaitiaki]] is also increasingly used in New Zealand for broader roles of trusteeship or guardianship&mdash;especially in public sector organisations, as these examples demonstrate:<br />
<br />
* A proposed "Governance-Kaitiaki group" to oversee electronic authentication by government<ref>[http://www.e.govt.nz/archive/services/authentication/tikanga-200408/chapter7.html "Research of issues for Māori relating to the Online Authentication Project"]</ref><br />
* New Zealand's Chief Ombudsman is ''"Nga Kaitiaki Mana Tangata"'' in [[Māori language|Māori]] (i.e. "The guardian of the people")<ref>[http://www.ombudsmen.govt.nz/]</ref><br />
