Stories From The Manapōuri Hydro Project
More than a protest—uncover the grit, hardship and history of the people who lived the Manapōuri build. Rosemary Baird joins Liz Grant in this important kōrero.
You’ve heard of Manapōuri as the backdrop of Aotearoa’s biggest, most iconic environmental protest — but there’s another side to the story. Rosemary Baird’s The Middle of Nowhere: Stories from the Mānapouri Hydro Project uncovers the powerful history of those who lived through extreme and punishing conditions to help build it. Hear about those human stories, in conversation with Liz Grant.
With support from University of Canterbury Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha.
