A protest march to Parliament is planned on July 30 to speak out against the practice of babies being taken from mothers by the state.
The rally was agreed at a weekend hui which also called for a Māori-led inquiry into Oranga Tamariki and demanded that "not one more Māori baby be taken".
It follows a media investigation which showed footage of a newborn being uplifted from a mother in hospital.
On TVNZ's Marae programme yesterday there was a call for all iwi to participate in the march at the end of the month and to strive for Māori-based solutions by Māori, for Māori.
