MBIE is committed to building an organisation that reflects the communities it serves, at all levels. MBIE understands this is reliant on building an inclusive workplace to support attraction and retention of people from diverse backgrounds.
We are inviting proposals for the He Ara Whakahihiko Capability Fund Rangapū Rangahau funding mechanism. Rangapū Rangahau invests in work programmes that strengthen capability and networks by building new connections between Māori organisations and the science, innovation and technology system (SI&T).
