Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga (NPM) is offering a three year full-time doctoral scholarship, including a stipend of $25,000 plus tuition fees, and $500 towards thesis binding. The thesis must examine indigenous governance, specifically iwi governance and Māori assets, fitting with NPM’s research priority, Optimising Māori Economic Performance. Of particular interest is the role of women in leadership and governance in iwi communities.
