It is a pleasure to introduce the proceedings of the second online research symposium collaboratively organised by Unitec and Manukau Institute of Technology. Held in December, the 2022 symposium was themed around
collaboration and industry partnership, a critical point of difference for the sector. Rangahau: Te Mana o te Mahi Kotahitanga / Research: The Power of Collaboration facilitated a high degree of engagement from Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics across the mōtu. There are nine papers published here in these proceedings, eight under the category of learning and teaching (with sub-categories of early childhood education and nursing), and one under the category of sustainable communities (a social practice paper). This emphasis on learning and teaching research aligns well with the priorities of Te
Pūkenga, which place student success front and centre of the organisation.
