Our 2014 conference has concluded and after over a year and a half of planning, months of organising, and four days of coming together and sharing our cultures, our experiences, our battles, our triumphs and especially our laughter - all our conference delegates have now returned to their home communities.
To those who came here to Tamaki Makaurau (Auckland) this year, we thank you for your visit and hope to see you again soon. 2015 brings with it a whole host of new events and seminars for Ngā Pae which we will keep you up to date on, and in 2016 we hope to be holding the next Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga conference here in NZ once again.
To those of you who couldn't make it this time, we look forward to welcoming you here in 2016.
We leave this years conference inspired by what we have heard and seen about the work of our colleagues from around NZ, and the world.
The feedback on this years event was amazingly positive and there were many valuable lessons learnt as well as new relationships and contacts made by the delegates - not to mention old friendships renewed once again.
Please stay in touch with us via our Facebook page, where you will find many of the images from this years conference.
You can also link to our Twitter page which is updated regularly and this website will keep you informed on the latest news about NPM projects and events.
There is much happening here at Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga over the coming months, so stay tuned!
