The w\u0101nanga was well attended by Te Tumu staff, postgraduate students, and friends from across the university, all of whom came to share rich stories about how they related to peace in varying ways. Centring M\u0101ori and Pacific notions of peace, the session explored what these perspectives might reveal about the limits of how violence, conflict, and peace are currently imagined. <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/tetumuresearch\/engaging-wananga-centres-maori-and-pacific-notions-of-peace-with-professor-georgina-tuari-stewart\/\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This excerpt is from an article originally published on the university Te Tumu Research at Otago in M\u0101ori, Pacific and Indigenous Studies blog.
