Tū Rangaranga
The biggest challenges of the twenty-first century require global solutions. Focusing on three of the most urgent problems of our time — climate change, conflict, and poverty and inequality — Tū Rangaranga: Rights, responsibility & global citizenship in Aotearoa New Zealand, published by Massey University Press, introduces the notion of global citizenship, and what it means to be an active citizen in today’s world from the perspective of Aotearoa.
I led the editing of this book, working closely with four co-editors, Assoc. Prof. Margaret Forster (Rongomaiwāhine, Ngāti Kahungunu), Rand Hazou, David Littlewood and Carol Neill. This book is significant as it is the first and only book-length exploration of global citizenship from the perspective of Aotearoa, with narrative spine which weaves together Mātauranga Māori and western epistemologies.
