Youth Empowerment Series—Studying in Aotearoa

⋯⋯⋯ ୨୧ ⋯⋯⋯

What can we learn when we step into Indigenous learning spaces in another country?

Join us for a sharing session with Pisuy Bawnay, an alumna of the NDHU College of Indigenous Studies and currently a PhD candidate at the School of Māori Studies, Victoria University of Wellington in Aotearoa New Zealand.

She will share her experiences studying in Aotearoa—from everyday student life to her engagement with Māori Studies—and offer personal insights into how cultures connect and how Indigenous knowledge is understood in different contexts.

This session is not only about studying abroad, but also about exploring global Indigenous connections. All students interested in international exchange, Indigenous cultures, and related studies are welcome!
