Description

IDIA was established in December 2017. We support indigenous growth and excellence in the areas of design, communications, technology and innovation through design research and best practice, capability building and product and solution design.

We spearhead innovative projects that use an indigenous lens to create solutions to contemporary problems. In doing so, we look to push back against the homogenising effects of globalised design and technology. As a centre of excellence for indigenous design and innovation we:

  • Define global standards and ethical practices for indigenous design, communications and technology development.
  • Support tinorangatiratanga, Māori sovereignty and Māori responses to local and global problems.
  • Support whānau, hapū and iwi development through enriching learning opportunities at all levels.
  • Create opportunities for indigenous people to work in design, communications and technology sectors.
  • Inspire indigenous designers, rangatahi and the public by sharing cutting-edge design and by engaging in thoughtful and provocative kōrero.
  • Host hui and wananga to showcase, share and innovate on global and indigenous design and innovative solutions
  • Make powerful tools and resources accessible to all
