PIA Intern
Ko Pirongia te maunga,
Ko Waikato te awa,
Ko Tainui te waka,
Ko Tainui tōku iwi,
Ko Ngāti Māhanga tōku hapū,
Ko Te Papa-o-rotu tōku marae.
Ko Freedom Kiriona tōku ingoa.
My name is Freedom Kiriona and I have just finished my second year in my Bachelor of Health Sciences at The University of Auckland. I am passionate in addressing Māori health inequities and furthering my knowledge to better advocate for health equity. I am excited to be a PIA intern over the summer break at Hāpai and look forward to all the experience and knowledge I will gain.
