Scholarships​

Ngā Pou Mana are proud to be able to provide the Ngā Taonga Mātauranga o Ngā Pou Mana scholarships and awards to tauira and kaimahi Māori.

Ngā Pou Mana have established yearly scholarships in collaboration with PHARMAC that are provided to kaimahi and/or tauira Māori who are in study, and/or those who have had a positive impact on their whānau, hapū, iwi or communities.

The awards are to support Māori allied health workforce development, so that people can continue their study, to grow professional and cultural practice. The awards will provide much needed tautoko and manaaki for kaimahi Māori and students.

Te Whatu Ora or DHB staff who are tangata whenua, employed under allied health, scientific, technical, public or Māori health worker roles are able to access full funding for their membership fees under their MECA agreement.  If you think you are eligible, click on the link above and fill out the information.  We will send you an email and coupon code for the funded membership which you then use to sign up below.
