A weekly documentary programme providing in-depth analysis of a topical issue. Insight is broadcast nationwide on Radio New Zealand National during Sunday Morning. In today's programme:

In most tribes, it's the man's job to speak on the marae during a formal Māori powhiri, while the women lead the karanga or welcome call.

Is this sexism or are they upholding the teachings of their ancestors?

Radio New Zealand's Te Manu Korihi reporter, Leigh McLachlan, speaks to iwi representatives, politicians and young Māori wahine about their rights on the marae today.
