Papakāinga: Exploring potential for Māori Co-housing.

This event has passed Get tickets

Event description

How can ‘braided methodologies’ in research contribute to better community outcomes in housing?

We also look at how housing is relational, multi-dimensional and intergenerational. Join Dr James Berghan (Te Rarawa, Te Aupouri) as he shares his newest research on co-housing models for Māori. James also explores how co-housing offers private lived spaces but also thrives in features such as shared gardens, collective outdoor family-friendly spaces and communal cooking areas. So what then does this mean for Western notions of ‘property’ and ‘commodity’?
