Māori in construction – a panel discussion.

Māori in construction – a panel discussion.

posted on 18 August 2020

Watch our recent Diversity Agenda webinar, a panel discussion that addresses the question – why aren’t there more Māori engineers and what can we do to change that? It’s vital we improve the representation of Māori in our professions – to help shape an Aotearoa that reflects us all.

Our panel featured:

  • Lincoln Timoteo, Site Engineer, Fletcher Construction
  • Chantelle Bailey, Senior Structural Engineer, Aurecon 
  • Troy Brockbank, Kaitohutohu Matua Taiao / Senior Environmental Consultant, WSP
  • Warner Cowin, Chief Executive Officer, Height Project Management

These experts shared their valuable insight and discussed the low representation of Māori engineers within construction, the importance of Te Tiriti o Waitangi within firms and projects, why we need more Māori in leadership roles, and how to encourage young Māori into a career in engineering.

For those of you who couldn’t make the free live event, you can now watch the recorded webinar in your own time.


If you’re interested in hosting an online event, please get in touch – we’d love opportunity to share your diversity and inclusion knowledge with our members.
