How can Māori and Pacific knowledge shape the future of housing and design? Explore approaches to creating places where people, cultures and communities can thrive.
The places we build shape far more than our physical surroundings. They influence identity, belonging, wellbeing and the resilience of communities for generations to come.
Join Dr Karamia Müller of Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland, as she explores how Māori and Pacific knowledge and values can help shape the future of architecture, housing and the built environment in Aotearoa. Drawing on her internationally recognised research into Indigenous spatial concepts and community-led housing, Karamia will share how design informed by whakapapa, tikanga Māori and Pacific knowledge systems can create places that strengthen connections between people, culture and te taiao.
Dr Karamia Müller is a Mana Tūāpapa Future Leader Fellow and Co-Director of MĀPIHI Māori and Pacific Housing Research Centre at Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland. In this session, she explores how Māori and Pacific knowledge and values can help shape the future of architecture, housing and the built environment in Aotearoa.
