“How whakapapa saved my life”

KParingatai200pxDr Karyn Paringatai (Ngāti Porou) is perhaps best known for her innovative award-winning teaching pedagogy – teaching in the dark.  But on 10 November, Karyn gave a talk for TEDxDunedin on a much more personal issue, on how learning her whakapapa saved her life.  TEDx talks are about “Ideas Worth Spreading”.
