"The resource supports Samoan Language Week with an explanation of the theme, pronunciation support, helpful words and phrases and a lot of activity ideas," Mr Lotu-Iiga says.
The theme this year is: "E felelei manu, ae ma'au i o latou ofaga: Birds migrate to environments where they survive and thrive."
It explored how identity, environments, diversity and sustainability were crucial aspects of creating communities where people were supported to learn and use Gagana Samoa.
Race Relations Commissioner Dame Susan Devoy said Gagana Samoa was a language of the future and encouraged New Zealanders to celebrate Samoan Language Week.
"As well as a language that epitomises the ancient Samoan culture, Gagana Samoa is also a language of the future.
"Google Translate for Samoan was launched earlier this year, a sign that Samoan is being used on the internet so much that a translation tool was needed: we echo the hopes of Pacific [Peoples] Minister Peseta Sam Lotu-Iiga that this will extend to our other Pacific languages in years to come," Dame Susan said.
Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa: Samoan Language Week, starts today and ends on Saturday.
