My first venture in this role was running the Tūhono Cultural Intelligence programme at UC. Having completed this certificate myself in 2023, I was thoroughly excited to assist the next generation of students through the programme. Participants attended 6 meetings throughout semester 1, and learned about the value of culture and diversity in a professional environment. Following the completion of the course, students received their Cultural Intelligence (CQ) certificate.My second venture in this role was the Business School X UCom Amazing Race Event. I was on the organising panel alongside fellow Internationalisation assistants and UCom execs. The social event was organised with the objective of bridging the gap between international and domestic business students. Attendees were randomly divided into groups and had to work together, leveraging their cultural differences to their advantage. Show less

I worked part time as a ‘rangatahi’ (youth) ambassador to deliver training in digital technologies, to re-engage young learners. I achieved this by working as a youth mentor at various events and school holiday programmes in Maori/Pasifika communities, training children to learn using innovative educational technologies. I contributed to the establishment of trust within local kids, by being a familiar face within the community. Our events (held in various Canterbury Libraries) exposed children to modern forms of education which are more enjoyable than older, outdated methods. The meaningful work I did opened kids’ eyes to future pathways, and made a significant positive impact in their lives. Show less
