May is Doctoral Wellbeing Month
Doing your doctorate can be lonely and overwhelming, even more so when you are far from home. That's why we've created Doctoral Wellbeing Month.
We encourage you to visit the Doctoral Wellbeing and Community web page to sign up for a wide variety of special wellbeing events, and explore all the resources available to help you thrive during your doctorate.
Candidate in the spotlight: Justine Skilling
Justine Skilling, a doctoral candidate in the Faculty of Arts and Education, has focused her research on collaborative efforts to make the South Auckland suburb of Māngere greener, guided by Te Ao Māori principles.
She hopes her findings will inform future policy and encourage investment in indigenous-led, community-driven environmental work, where the results will benefit not just this generation, but those that follow.
Learn more about Justine and her PhD research in Making Māngere green again.
