Linda Faulkner

Linda is of Ngāti Rangi and Whanganui tribal descent and classifies herself as a ‘research strategist’. She has long been an advocate for creating space for the distinctive and innovative opportunities and benefits possible through reclaiming, revitalising and restoring mātauranga Māori alongside science. In various capacities Linda has guided and facilitated research outcomes that leverage ‘dual knowledge power’ in authentic, empowering and mana enhancing ways. Her recent appointment as Natural Sciences Commissioner of the New Zealand National Commission for UNESCO, and as a member of the Advisory Board for the UN Decade of Ocean Science recognises the growing international interest in such approaches.
