Deadline: 29 March 2023

This is a collaboration between Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga (NPM) and Coastal People: Southern Skies (CPSS). We are making a short call for excellent research activities that have scholarly, creative and/or community engagement dimensions that serve to document, interrogate and communicate the spectrum of displacement impacts that have affected Māori communities due to Cyclone Gabrielle. Displacement may be interpreted broadly and relate to any cyclone related interruption of everyday life, both short or long term.

The next issue of MAI Journal will be published within the next few days. Papers appearing are:

Bridgette Masters-Awatere, Patricia Young, Rebekah Graham

State agencies and researchers engaging with Indigenous communities on climate change adaptation planning: A systematic review

Erana Hond-Flavell, Aroaro Tamati, Gareth J. Treharne, Reremoana Theodored, Jesse Kokauae, Will Edwards, Ruakere Hond, Richie Poulton, Mihi Ratima

Whare across the motu have been tuning into the Rugby World Cup to support the Black Ferns as they cut a track to the finals. The superb athleticism and skill on display has been a huge drawcard, generating enthusiastic support for the players and their teams. The Ferns, which has a large contingent of Māori and Pasifika players, have had to overcome a number of challenges in the lead up to the Cup, including the fallout from their troubled 2021 European tour, which led to the appointment of new coaches.

On August 18th, Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga (Ngā Pae) was thrilled to host the Hon. Ayesha Verrall, Minister for Research, Science and Innovation at Rehutai, Waipapa Taumata Rau.

This year's 2021-2022 New Horizons Raumati (Summer) Internship Programme is about to start with another outstanding group of aspiring emerging Māori researchers.

This summer they will be working with NPM Researchers from around the country engaged in an exciting range of projects that align to the NPM Matakitenga research programme and contribute to the mission of NPM which is to create the foundations for flourishing Māori futures.

Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga has partnered with the team at The Spinoff to bring an exciting new series that shares our research and shows how Mātauranga Māori is shaping the future of Aotearoa.

We begin by returning to our roots. 'Ko Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga tēnei: The beating heart of mātauranga Māori' that chronicles our incredible journey to date.

Ngā mihi to all of those who have fought for us and for flourishing Māori futures.
