M膩tauranga M膩ori Research Excellence recipients
2022:
The selection panel thought Jason's application introduction and text in te reo M膩ori was beautifully written.
They could see the external recognition for Jason's work via the research grants and the commissioned research he has received.
The panel was also impressed by the examples Jason used in his application to demonstrate the reach and impact of his research, for example a conceptual paper on M膩ori and international trade leading to further collaboration, and eventually government work.
