Professor Stephen Cornell will talk about his work as Co-Director of the Harvard Project on American Indian Economic Development, a research programme based at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University that he co-founded in the late 1980's with Professor Joseph P Kalt. Professor Cornell is also Director of the Udall Centre for Studies in Public Policy and Professor of Sociology and of Public Administration and Policy at the University of Arizona where he also serves as a faculty associate with the Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management and Policy.

He has written widely on Indigenous affairs, economic development, collective identity and ethnic and race relations.

Professor Cornell has spent much of the last 20 years working with Indigenous nations and organisations - mostly in the United States but also in Canada, Australia and New Zealand - on governance, economic development and tribal policy issues. Professor Cornell's visit is sponsored by Waikato-Tainui College for Research and Development.
