Asian Staff Network

The staff-led network for people with Asian heritage at Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland.

What we do

Together, we:

  • Connect, support and nurture a sense of belonging among Asian communities at the University;
  • Aspire to better understand and enact our responsibilities to tangata whenua and Te Tiriti o Waitangi, as Asian tangata Tiriti (people of Te Tiriti);
  • Actively advocate against racism and all forms of discrimination;
  • Seek to increase opportunities for engagement and representation of Asian perspectives across all levels of the University, and
  • Recognise and celebrate our cultural diversity and contributions within the University
