Pouāwhina Māori responsibilities
The Pouāwhina Māori at the Auckland Law School is committed to providing support to all Māori tauira (students) interested or currently pursuing law.

- To act as a point of contact for all Māori students enrolled in a Law degree
- Collaborating with the university support services and academic departments to provide students with comprehensive support in all aspects of their course of study
- Helping students access pastoral care, financial support, academic assistance, student services, and course planning advice within the university
- Organising and coordinating tutorials, wānanga, and other support activities for all core Law papers within the Māori Academic Programme (MAP).
