MECOSS Community Networking Meetings are an opportunity for local community groups, social and health and safety providers, not-for-profit organisations and interested general public to make solid connections, learn from each other and to share and discuss ideas.

Attendees are invited to speak and inform the audience about the great things they're doing in the community. It's also a place where individuals and groups can voice their opinion and/or raise concerns about what they feel need addressing. In some circumstances, MECOSS may then act as an advocate for change through Community Networks Aotearoa (CNA); a national organisation with strong links to government.

During 2020, MECOSS meetings will be held at venues in the Pakuranga and Howick area and the Botany and Flat Bush and Ormiston area of Auckland's, Manukau East.

Feeling a tad outdated at work?

The Mind Lab

There is nothing worse than that sneaking suspicion that you are past your sell-by date at work. There is a point at which quirky and clueless is less fun and more embarrassing.

There really is no reason to feel this way if the issue is not being digitally literate. … View more
There is nothing worse than that sneaking suspicion that you are past your sell-by date at work. There is a point at which quirky and clueless is less fun and more embarrassing.

There really is no reason to feel this way if the issue is not being digitally literate. Digital Skills for the Workplace, offered by The Mind Lab, is fun, it really is, and it’s not a bunch of “how to” steps that you need to follow once you’re back at work and pray that it works - you actually use the tools without being aware that you are learning the tool.
You experience the impact of the skill while using it and playing so it’s already part of your DNA by the time you get back to work.

That’s a secret Mind Lab formula by the way!
And its professional development (tick that box!)

The Bachelor of Humanities awaits you!

Meet Christina Nuku who graduated with a double major in Indigenous Studies and Policy. Through Awanuiārangi, Christina went on a 3-month indigenous knowledge exchange programme at the University of Northern British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada.

She shares “the exchange connected me with the Nisga’a people, First Nations tribal systems, communities and hauora programmes. It informed my studies and opened my mind. It was a genuine privilege to connect with the tangata whenua there, and an opportunity I would never otherwise have had”
