Meet Derek who shares about his learning journey in the Bachelor of Humanities
“The content – indigenous studies, policy, and business – fit right in with what I wanted. I knew it would help me with my own outlook personally and in my work with whānau in the health sector.
“Once we got into the nuts and bolts of indigenous studies and issues such as identity and decolonisation, I realised that the entire programme of study was working hand in hand with my mahi as a hauora practitioner.
“It provided tools that related directly back to my mahi and helped in the work to deliver better outcomes and solutions for whānau.”
