Have your say. Survey links are now live
We’re pleased to share an opportunity to support a kaupapa that aims to uplift and amplify the voices of Māori in the built environment. Puritia Te Aka Matua, a collaborative initiative led by ŌRUA, is focused on understanding the current landscape for Māori staff and students in architecture and landscape architecture, and identifying solutions to support them to thrive.
This mahi is being guided through both an online survey and a series of in-person Information & Networking Sessions taking place across Aotearoa.
We encourage you to participate and share this kaupapa across your networks:
- Kaimahi Survey (Practitioners/Professionals)
- Tauira Survey (Students)
- In-Person Session Registration
The findings of the reports will be launched at Te Taumata o Kupe, with registrations to attend being sent out closer to the time.
