With: Corban Te Aika (Ngāi Tahu)

Enjoy a walk around UC to see how these are expressed in new and refurbished buildings. Think about what is involved in the university’s journey towards becoming a te Tiriti based institution and what architecture's role is within this as it celebrates its 150th year.
