Kiri Edge
Kiri has contributed to a wide range of interdisciplinary research and evaluation projects across both academic and community contexts. Kiri is experienced working within complex and sensitive topics, and engaging with people, whānau, and communities that some consider ‘hard to reach’. Kiri’s research interests are diverse, but pivot towards endeavours that contribute towards Māori wellbeing and flourishing, equity, social justice and sustainable community-driven development. Kiri’s current rangahau interests include reclamation of indigenous pathways to wellbeing, grieving within and across cultural worlds, and relational & sexual ethics in adult relationships. Kiri is passionate about supporting kaimahi with their rangahau interests, and growing rangahau across TWoA.
