Manatū Taonga | The Ministry for Culture and Heritage (MCH) is proposing devastating cuts that will dismantle decades of world-class historical scholarship and shutter vital resources that serve hundreds of thousands of New Zealanders.
What’s Under Threat:
- Historian positions are being eliminated
- Digital platforms like Te Ara, Dictionary of New Zealand Biography, and NZHistory.govt.nz face closure
- Educational outreach programmes will be cut
- Research funding programmes are at risk
