Ngāti Hikairo ki Kāwhia | Ngāti Maniapoto | Waikato | Kāi Tahu
The Pouaarahi leads internal cultural confidence within Te Ao Māori, Tangata Pasifika and priority populations. In partnership with the Pou Rangahau - Research Engagement Manager, the Pouaarahi facilitates the collaborations of our national pūkenga rangahau (research experts) and, over the life course of Te Niwha, support research development and outcomes across government agencies with iwi Māori and tangata Pasifika. The Pouaarahi balances between the two and brings into focus an appropriate development of Knowledge sharing networks that ensures the exchange of mātauranga (knowledge) is aligned to the outcomes of the platform, is grounded in a Te Tiriti o Waitangi principled approach and endures through implementation and thereafter.
