Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga and the International Indigenous Research Conference 2020 (IIRC20) Committee is proud to announce that we will be hosting a

3-day online international conference

Wednesday 18th November - Friday 20th November (NZ Time)

These three days will be devoted entirely to an online "Gathering of Indigenous Minds" and the IIRC20 online environment will enable us to reach nationally and internationally and to continue to share and engage during these times of global restrictions.

The 2020 conference will enable Indigenous researchers and scholars to share their research via pre-recorded presentations, but with the added feature of ‘live’ interactive online parallel discussion sessions. Come prepared, be engaged and be ready to gather online with other Indigenous minds.
