We partnered with Associate Professor Melinda Webber (University of Auckland) to collaborate with her on the analysis of data already collected. Melinda’s research “Kia tū rangatira ai ngā iwi Māori: Living, succeeding, and thriving as iwi Māori” focuses on cultural identity, and how people learn and strive in educational settings from the perspectives of ākonga, kaiako, and whānau.
COMPASS is a series of reports that explores explores notions of success, support networks, and aspirations for ākonga Māori and Pacific students, as reported by ākonga, whānau, and kaiako.
