Travel fellowship for Blank bias research
Writer and child advocate Anton Blank has won a Winston Churchill Fellowship to further his research into unconscious bias.
He intends to travel to Taiwan and the United Kingdom to meet with diversity, multiculturalism and unconscious bias experts.
What he learns will help him to develop resources and training for use in New Zealand.
Another of this year’s Churchill fellows is Auckland-based urban development professional Claire Woolley, who wants to travel to the United States and Canada to identify models used to deliver affordable housing for Native Hawaiian, Native American and First Nations peoples that could be adapted for Maori-focused housing projects.
