He Maunga, He Tangata is a unique initiative available to Māori candidates who have completed an under-graduate degree in built environment design and are interested in undertaking post-graduate studies in either Landscape Architecture or Architecture in Tāmaki Makaurau.
Offered by Isthmus Group, Te Whare Wānanga o Wairaka: Unitec Institute of Technology, and Te Kaunihera o Tāmaki Makaurau: Auckland Council, this 24 month internship provides the opportunity to undertake post-graduate built environment design study, to be placed within a unique busy local government design environment, and also to be part of the design team in one of Aotearoa’s leading design studios.
The name adopted for this initiative speaks to the immutable connections established by whakapapa, which connect Māori to their environment and tūpuna across time. With these connections and ancestral landscapes standing strongly, Māori can stand and flourish to become all that they can be.
