PARTNERSHIP FOCUS FOR MAORI ACADEMIC'S FULBRIGHT STUDYA prestigious Fulbright New Zealand Scholar Award will enable a Massey University academic to research partnerships between indigenous communities and higher education institutions in the United States. The award will allow Huia Jahnke, Ngati Kahungunu, Ngati Toa Rangatira, Ngai Tahu, and Ngati Hine, Professor of Maori and Indigenous Education at Massey University’s Te Patahi-a-Toi/School of Maori Knowledge, to explore the kinds of partnerships that could help to advance Maori education goals. "In Aotearoa New Zealand, for example, the Minister of Social Development’s newly-released discussion document Te Pae Tawhiti emphasises that what matters most for Maori in the education of Maori learners is for Maori to exercise agency and authority over their learning. This means a genuine partnership approach across the education system is vital to Maori education success.".... www.voxy.co.nz/national/5/356680
