Welcome to the Institute of AI Governance
Empowering Aotearoa through culturally grounded AI education.
The Institute of AI Governance was established to address a growing need across Aotearoa: access to trusted, culturally relevant AI education. As AI becomes more embedded in everyday life, a new divide is emerging — one shaped by limited access to tools, knowledge, and support. At IAIG, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to understand, engage with, and shape the future of AI.
What We Offer
We provide general and specialist AI training for individuals, organisations, and communities across Aotearoa. What sets us apart:
- 100% Māori owned and led
- Courses designed by Māori, for Māori
- Training that honours both kaupapa Māori and corporate environments
- Flexible delivery – in-person at your marae or workplace, or online
- Custom solutions – tailored to your organisation’s needs
Our Approach
Our courses are grounded in both mātauranga Māori and industry expertise. With decades of combined experience across Māori tech, mainstream tech, academia, and business, we bring a uniquely Indigenous lens to AI education — one that prioritises cultural safety, digital sovereignty, and practical impact.
Whether you’re just beginning your AI journey or looking to uplift your organisation’s knowledge, we’re here to support you.
