The Asthma Foundation and HRC have formed a joint research partnership initiative to support a Māori PhD student to undertake high-quality respiratory research for Māori.
The Asthma Foundation’s mission is better respiratory health for all New Zealanders and Māori health is a key strategic priority. Noting the significant inequalities experienced by Māori across a range of respiratory conditions, the Asthma Foundation sees this PhD scholarship as a key opportunity to provide high-quality Māori-led research providing evidence for, or leading directly to, service changes that will yield improved respiratory health outcomes for Māori.
