Sophie Karangaroa, who recently passed her PhD as a MCASI student, presented her doctoral research at the World Indigenous Peoples\u2019 Conference on Education (WIPCE) yesterday, a major global forum attended by more than 3,800 delegates from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophie\u2019s PhD was supervised by Associate Professor Michelle Johnston, John Curtin Distinguished Professor Kim Scott, and Professor Huia Jahnker from Massey University (New Zealand). Her doctoral work reflects the depth and strength of Indigenous-led research emerging through MCASI, and her presentation at WIPCE highlighted the cultural integrity, academic rigour, and relevance of her study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
