E ngā ringa rangahau, ngā ringa tōhau nui o Ngāti Kahungunu

E ngā ringa rangahau, ngā ringa tōhau nui o Ngāti Kahungunu

Haere mai rā, piki mai rā, nau mai ki tō tātou wānanga whakahirahira!

Hoki mai ki Ahuriri, ki Te Ara o Tāwhaki, ki Te Ūranga Waka, ki Te Aho a Māui – e tū nei hei pou herenga wānanga i roto i tō tātou rohe. 

Ko konei tātau wānanga ai, hei whakapakari i te rangahau, hei whakaohooho i te hunga rangatahi, me te whakapūmau i te reo me ngā tikanga tuku iho.

This conference opportunity run by the Te Kura I Awarua Rangahau Māori Research Centre aims to celebrate Ngāti Kahungunu researchers engaged in mahi rangahau and in research.  “Nō Ngāti Kahungunu, mō Ngāti Kahungunu”  – koirā te karanga!

From 9-11 July at Te Aho a Māui | Eastern Institute of Technology, this conference is an opportunity to network, to present research, to share expertise, and to honour the mātauranga that you do and the research that supports Ngāti Kahungunu Iwi and its hapū and whānau.

We are interested in YOU as a Ngāti Kahungunu researcher. From the older mātanga to the fledgling ‘pī ka rere’ – we all need to sit in the same room and develop the networks and learn the lessons that support our ‘capability’ as kairangahau and researchers.

But more so, we need to sit and develop Ngāti Kahungunu research ‘capacity’. We need to inspire the next generation of the ‘ringa rangahau o Ngāti Kahungunu’ network and support the connections and the projects that will promote the development and the wellbeing of Ngāti Kahungunu.

This is a peer-reviewed and quality-assured conference. We are interested in whatever branch of research you are involved in. 

Ensure your EOI submission includes your full name, email, phone number, and research title in the header for accurate identification and attribution.
