About Matakai
What is Matakai?
Matakai is a global online community that empowers immigrants to navigate the many phases of their journey—from arrival to integration and beyond. We help immigrants build meaningful connections with others who share similar experiences, creating a safe and supportive space to grow, thrive, and belong. The name Matakai, which means “strides” or “steps”, is deeply symbolic. Every immigrant's journey is marked by transitions, challenges, and growth—and Matakai exists to support every step of that path. Whether you"re looking for practical advice, emotional support, or simply a sense of community, Matakai connects you to people and resources that make your new home feel more like home.
Ask the Community
Have questions only other immigrants would understand? Want to run a quick poll or get feedback on something you&qout;re facing? At Matakai, you can ask, learn, and grow—together. No question is too small, and every experience adds value to someone else’s journey.
Tell your story
Your voice matters. Have a powerful story or experience to share? Need advice or support from fellow immigrants? Just want to connect with others who get it? Matakai is the place to tell your story, seek help, and inspire others. When we share our journeys, we strengthen our community.
