Social media for researchers: Opportunities and challenges
The Professional Excellence Series of online webinars will be hosted by Associate Professor Meegan Hall who is the Assistant Vice-Chancellor (Mātauranga Māori) at Te Herenga Waka – Victoria University of Wellington and a member of Ngā Pae o Te Māramatanga’s Research Leadership Team.
The Professional Excellence Programme builds on NPM’s goals to:
-
Increase our early career researchers’ skills in research excellence and career opportunities; and
-
Enhance and harness the Māori researcher excellence in research, research leadership, and supervision across all levels.
It also aligns with NPM’s four values of rangatiratanga, kaitiakitanga, manaakitanga and whanaungatanga by ensuring that the programme helps Māori researchers to:
-
Apply effective strategies for self-management and leadership in research (Rangatiratanga)
-
Identify opportunities and approaches to enhance wellbeing and balance in relation to research (Kaitiakitanga)
-
Apply research activities and outputs in ways that are inclusive and respectful (Manaakitanga)
-
Create and/or consolidate a supportive Māori research community/cohort (Whanaungatanga)
