This talk explores the role of pūrākau (stories and storytelling) for Māori Philosophy. Drawing from the stories of Indigenous women, I contend that pūrākau are repositories of accumulated knowledge that not only contain Māori Philosophy but enable its critical
engagement and cultivation. Practices of storytelling are, then, vital to the creation and transformation of Māori concepts and ideas, and vital to understanding Māori practices of philosophical inquiry. In laying this out, I detail some of the ways that Māori
and other Indigenous methods reimagine philosophy not least in ways that include the needs and aspirations of the communities in which these philosophies are experienced and lived.</div>
