It's very much like a first-year master's course with academic rigour and from an indigenous Māori lens through the concepts to the knowledge sharing as well.
I'm so proud of this cohort, as some have matriculated into our institute's postgraduate master's programme called 'He Waka Hiringa'.
The qualification is called an Applied Master's of Indigenous Knowledge, which both my sister and beloved are graduates of. It is so encouraging to see many more go on the journey to see where it will take them.
I'm also looking forward to my own graduation, which is only a few weeks left now. Preparations have been made for our family to travel to Whakatane.
The powhiri (Māori welcoming ceremony) is on Thursday, April 30th, followed by the Graduation ceremony on the following day. There will be more to blog about as we look forward and count down to the travelling days...
