International Development Seminar Series 2019-2020

Understanding spending amongst marginalised female communities: the case of Maori women in New Zealand

Speaker: Dr Pushpa Wood (Director - Financial Education and Research Centre, School of Economics and Finance, Massey University, NZ)

The seminar will present findings from a study carried out in New Zealand where the participants took part in voluntarily keeping their spending diaries for a set period. The participants in this study were in two age groups (18-35 years and 35+). The presentation will highlight key findings and lessons learned. It is hoped that the discussion that will follow will help to identify areas of mutual interest and further research.
