The research will provide evidence relating to wellbeing and cultural connection within and between whānau with the intent to develop an aspirational model for Waikato-Tainui. The intern Ayla Jenkins will provide support to the researchers during marae and whānau engagement in the field. The supervisor is Jonathan Kilgour.
