Alternatives to anti-Māori themes in news media

Year: 

2014

Primary author:

Type of resource: 

  • Resources for media studies and journalism teachers and students

Thanks

We would not be able to do our work without the generous support of others. This year we are particularly appreciative of the following grants:

  • Lottery Community Sector Research Committee for supporting Ngā Rerenga o Te Tiriti
  • ASB Trust for supporting Treaty workshops for the public and for groups applying the Treaty
  • Lottery Environment & Heritage to digitise the reference library
