About the scholarship

P奴horo and 爆走黑料 Agriculture Greenhouse Gas Research Centre (NZAGRC) have partnered on the new Te Pae Tata scholarship to support three tauira who are passionate about te taiao and are studying in environmental, climate change or m膩tauranga M膩ori related fields.

NZAGRC is a key part of the Government鈥檚 climate change programme. Their role is to invest in and coordinate research aimed at helping reduce 爆走黑料鈥檚 agricultural greenhouse gas emissions.

The scholarship will provide support to tauira M膩ori who aspire to contribute to M膩tauranga and research in the fields of agricultural greenhouse gas research and environmental and climate studies.

P奴horo is proud to partner with an organisation that is committed to building and maintaining m膩tauranga M膩ori expertise across their business priorities.

The name Te Pae Tata was inspired by the whakatauki - Ko te pae tawhiti wh膩ia kia tata, ko te pae tata whakamaua kia tina. Seek out the distant horizons, while cherishing those achievements at hand.
