Kennedy, Jade; Almeida, Shamika; Gibbons, Belinda; Clarke, Rodney; Bicego, Vincent; Phelan, Adam – Higher Education Research and Development, 2022

Often framed by 'the academy' from a deficit position, initiatives to address the 'problem' of Maori student and Pasifika student success is often ad hoc and disconnected, rarely…
