Description
In this beautiful and transformative book 24 Mori academics share their personal journeys revealing what being Mori has meant for them in their work Their perspectives provide insight for all New Zealanders into how mtauranga is positively influencing the Westerndominated disciplines of knowledge in the research sector It is a shameful fact says coeditor Jacinta Ruru in her introduction to Nga Kete Mtauranga that in 2020 only about 5 percent of academic staff at universities in Aotearoa New Zealand are Mori Tertiary institutions have for the most part been hostile places for Indigenous students and staff and this book is an important call for action It is well past time that our country seriously commits to decolonising the tertiary workforce curriculum and research agenda writes Professor Ruru
