Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga's Strategic Direction document outlines NPM's direction through to 2020.
Ko te Māori e arataki ana i a Aotearoa ki te ao kei mua
Our Matakitenga or Vision translates to 'Māori Leading New Zealand into the future' and our research realises Māori aspirations for positive engagement in national life and the future of the country.
NPM is delivering research that produces strategic outcomes in our interwoven thematic areas of Māori economy, environment and society.
We are enhancing our excellence in Indigenous scholarship and with all of our research seek to provide solutions to major challenges facing humanity in local and global settings.
Mā tini, mā mano, ka rapa te whai
With collaboration, worlds can be conquered
