Asia New Zealand Foundation
Project Background
In 2018 Ihi research were commissioned by the Asia New Zealand Foundation to conduct an online survey. The Foundation has been surveying New Zealanders' perceptions of Asia and Asian peoples for over two decades. This is the first time the perception of Asia and Asian Peoples survey has been carried out from a Te Ao Māori perspective. Consequently, this is a baseline survey, designed to gain a broad understanding of Māori perceptions across a wide range of items. A major point of difference with this survey from the general population survey is the exploration of perceptions of connection and opportunity for Māori businesses to thrive in Asia.
"Although we are shaped from various factors, we share an almost mutual sense of community and inclusiveness."
