Fulbright-NPM 2019 Awardees Announced

The 2019 Fulbright-Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga Awardees were recently announced at an event in Wellington.

NPM Principal Investigator Dr Jason Mika (Tūhoe, Ngāti Awa, Whakatōhea, Ngāti Kahungunu), senior lecturer at the School of Management, Massey University, is our 2019 Fulbright NPM Scholar. This award will see him visit Stanford University in San Francisco and the University of Arizona in Tuscon where he will research the design of effective enterprise assistance for Indigenous entrepreneurs. He has extensively researched Māori enterprise assistance in New Zealand and is keen to compare this research with what works in the United States.

Media Savvy for Māori Researchers

NPMs Media Savvy for Māori Researchers workshop was held recently at Waipapa Marae, University of Auckland.

A group of researchers from across the country gathered together to gain valuable insights into communication skills and media training, guided by the fantastic Science Media Centre team from Wellington.

From communicating with style, to presence and performance, giving an effective interview, using clear and compelling language, and interviewing under pressure - the researchers learned about the changing media environment and were challenged to pitch their research to a panel of visiting journalists.

NPM Principal Investigator Professor Jenny Lee-Morgan (Te Wānanga o Ōwairaka-Unitec) recently delivered her Inaugural Professorial Lecture in Auckland.
