Ocular Surface Lab (OSL) Team at Tūmahi Whiti Makutu Kairangahau Wānanga Papakura Marae – November 2025
In November 2025, the Ocular Surface Lab Research Team was proud to take part in the Tūmahi Whiti Makutu Kairangahau Wānanga, held at Papakura Marae in South Auckland. The gathering brought together Tangata Tiriti Kairangahau, Tangata Whenua, and Tangata Moana to collectively work toward Pae Ora and the improvement of Māori health outcomes.
We extend our sincere thanks to Iwi United Engaged Ltd for hosting this meaningful wānanga. We deeply appreciate the opportunity to engage with and learn alongside the local community.
