Bio/Research

My research and scholarship are driven by my conviction of the necessity for 1) active critical engagement in the local and global crises of governance and sustainability that confront us in the 21st century; 2) the necessity for a re-visioning of how we live together on this planet; and 3) the vital contribution of traditional Indigenous knowledge systems and languages.

Prior to my appointment to the University of Alberta in September 2004, I taught for 10 years in Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi, an Indigenous (Maori) post-secondary institution in Aotearoa New Zealand and the University of Auckland. During my 10 years at Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi, I taught graduate courses on International Relations and Indigenous Studies, and developed a postgraduate program. Other teaching positions in New Zealand include the University of Auckland where I undertook my academic studies, Tangaroa College where I also served as acting-HOD of the Maori Bi-lingual Unit, and Hillary College.
