Papamama Pokino (Pa) moved to Aotearoa New Zealand from Rarotonga in 2017. After a period of personal challenges he renewed his interest in making Pareu Boards - wooden boards used for creating traditional clothing to earn money to support his wife and family. He credits The Generator with not only enabling him to purchase essential work materials, but introducing him to financial support, workshops and the communities where he can sell his boards. Pa says he is now selling boards faster than he can make them and may need to hire staff.
