10 participants have begun their year-long journey to better understand and utilise iwi-specific data that can help make their aspirations a reality.
He Aho Kura Whākina - Integrated Data Infrastructure Research Training was created after iwi-led data collection programmes during the 2023 Census saw a growth in participation.
More than 60 people responded to the call for He Aho Kura Whākina, with the successful 10 chosen for their experience across other sectors such as health, education, and more.
Te Kāhui Raraunga chair, Rahui Papa, says, “By extending their skillset to use IDI, our participants can access data from across government agencies and sectors. This unlocks an opportunity to ask a broader range of questions and identify areas requiring change.
“This experience will be incredibly valuable to develop the skills of participants, building on their ability to enable iwi, hapū and whānau Māori to support iwi aspirations in a strategic and sustainable way."
