Professor Tahu Kukutai | Co-Director of Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga

The Pou Matarua Co-directors of Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga, Aotearoa’s only Māori Centre of Research Excellence (NPM) strongly condemn the Government’s decision to defund social science and humanities research within the Marsden Fund. They say Māori researchers, communities, and knowledge systems stand to suffer the most.
