• NPM is seeking to appoint a new Co-Director, one with a strong record of research, teaching, graduate supervision and demonstrated research leadership. The position will work alongside Professor Jacinta Ruru (University of Otago) as Co-Director, succeeding Professor Tracey McIntosh who has recently been appointed Professor of Indigenous Studies and co-Head, Te Wānanga o Waipapa at the University of Auckland. NPM is hosted by and has its main offices based at the University of Auckland, on behalf of the 21 collaborative partners.

  • We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Tracey McIntosh on her new appointment to Professor of Indigenous Studies and Co-Head of Te Wānanga o Waipapa at the University of Auckland (to commence 1 July 2017).

    Tracey has been influential in the success of Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga (NPM) over its 15 years, involved from the early days in leadership positions, initially on the NPM Research Committee, and then as a Joint Director (2007-2010), Director (mid 2014-2015) and most recently as Co-Director (2016-2017).

  • On 12 & 13 June 2017 NPM will once again be hosting an Auckland based Science Media Savvy - Media Skills for Māori Researchers workshop. This highly-acclaimed media and communications workshop is run by the Science Media Centre and follows on from two popular sessions we held in Auckland and Dunedin in 2016.

    The Wāhine Ora Award aims to support research that benefits Māori women, girls and/or whānau in Aotearoa New Zealand, is made annually and is a one off grant to assist research and/or living expenses.

  • Nei te hūpē te roimata e ringihia nei
    Mō tēnei māreikura kua ngaro ki te pō
    Ngarungaru Te Moana Nui A Kiwa
    Tuohu mokemoke ai ngā motu katoa
    E te mātanga a te kupu, E te ngākau nui tonu
    Waiho mā āu pia pono tō ōhākī e hiki
    Mahue mai mātou i te pūkatokato
    E te Raukura haere, haere, haere atu rā

  • Ko te haukai a te kairangahau Māori ko te reo Māori
    Tāia, whakapuakina, whakatōkia kia puawai

    The Māori language is the food of Māori researchers
    Let it be written, spoken and implanted so that it will grow.

    Applications have been called for the new ‘Tohu Puiaki - Doctoral Completion Scholarships’ which will offer up to $20,000 each to six people completing doctorates either in English on Māori Language Revitalisation, or who are writing their thesis in Te Reo Māori on any subject.

  • Waiho i te toipoto, kaua i te toiroa
    Let us keep close together not far apart

    We have reached the end of what has been an exciting, successful and busy year here at Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga (NPM) - New Zealand's Māori Centre of Research Excellence.
