  Iwi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Iwi (pronounced ee-wee) are the largest everyday social units in Māori society.
Iwi groups can trace their ancestry to the original Māori settlers that arrived from Hawaiiki, at least according to tradition.
A notable example of this is the recent settlement between the New Zealand Government and the Ngāi Tahu, compensating that iwi for various losses of the rights that were guaranteed in the Treaty of Waitangi of 1840.

 2: Successful ingredients for developing relationships with iwi and hapu   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Presentations may be repeated at several hierarchical levels in an iwi to different audiences, down to the marae and individual level, or to a specific iwi group, and usually take place at different locations.
It is often useful to discuss iwi issues in a suitable environment where these issues have meaning, such as in the field, on a marae, or at an iwi or hapu designated office.
In establishing relationships with iwi for collaborative research, much discussion will be on issues, the research questions needed to address those issues and the capabilities (skills and expertise) needed to carry out the work.

In addition, any iwi that wishes to be allocated fisheries assets by TOKM (whether they are in settlement negotiations with the Crown or not) will have to satisfy TOKM's mandate and structure requirements.
This is due partly to the fact that a consequence of repeated Crown Treaty breaches for many iwi is that the underlying historical iwi structures have been effectively torn to pieces.
Iwi will not be able to successfully utilise the benefits of any Treaty settlement or fisheries redress, or any other assets for that matter, unless and until, underlying legal structures have been investigated thoroughly and, if necessary, restructured.

Upon discovering IWI's use of its name in the meta tags found on defendant's site, plaintiff brought suit, claiming such activity violated 15 U.S.C. Defendants promptly consented to the entry of both a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction (the "Orders").
These orders prohibited defendants from using the "Nettis" name in the meta tags on defendant IWI's site, "in connection with the advertising or promotion of [defendant IWI's] goods, services or web site" or in such a way that might lead consumers to believe that defendant's services were authorized, sponsored or connected with plaintiff.
