Participating Research Entities

The research challenges facing New Zealand society are multi-dimensional and therefore multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional teams of researchers must collaborate to seek solutions. Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga supports such development by fostering quality and collaboration at national and international levels.

Two features are crucial to this strategy. First is the need to ensure critical engagement of expert Māori and their communities in the formulation, conduct and communication of excellent research. Second is the ability to create a synergy of excellence across Māori and non-Māori researchers, and across disciplines. We partner with our Participating Research Entities (PREs) to pursue these goals. Our PREs include:

• AUT University
• Auckland War Memorial Museum
• Lincoln University
• Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research
• Massey University
