Māori Research Advisory Group (MRAG)

Research Group Summary

The Māori Research Advisory Group (MRAG) is made up of academic staff from throughout the University that are leaders in their respective fields.  This group was established after increased importance was placed on researchers to ensure that they are conducting their research in a manner that is consistent with the Treaty of Waitangi principles and in a way that remains culturally safe for both researchers and research participants.
