This issue is dedicated to our Māori Postgraduates and the Te Kupenga o MAI (MAI) network.

After the many disruptions of 2020, we finally came together, kanohi ki te kanohi, in late April for our much loved annual MAI Doctoral Conference. 

Hosted superbly by MAI ki Waikato at the beautiful University of Waikato Tauranga campus, it was a special and empowering gathering.

Over 70 Māori doctoral candidates from MAI networks around the country travelled to share their research including: 

• MAI ki Aronui 
• MAI ki Tāmaki 
• MAI ki Waikato 
• MAI ki Massey 
• MAI ki Pōneke 
• MAI ki Otago
• MAI ki Canterbury
