Pānui | Newsletter - Issue 113 - August 2022

Kia ora!

After a very damp Winter it is lovely to see some sunshine breaking through. There are definite signs that Spring is here, the daffodils are out and the mornings are getting lighter - although this means we are also warming up for the inevitable sprint to the end of the year.

Speaking of new growth, we are very excited to announce that the team at NZFVC is about to grow. We are looking for a Kaupapa Māori Research Lead and a Project Support Coordinator to support our work. Please check out the News Story below and share with your networks.

As always, this Pānui includes a wealth of opportunities for training, learning and professional development listed in our ‘Events’ and ‘What’s new in the library’ sections below.
