Government's Marsden Fund cuts: All humanities, social sciences research funding slashed

Cutting all research funding for the fields is a massive step backwards, critics say.
The New Zealand Government has decided to cut funding for humanities and social sciences research through the Marsden Fund, as reported by MSN. This decision has sparked significant backlash from academics and researchers who argue that such cuts will undermine critical research in areas like history, literature, and social studies, which are essential for understanding societal issues and cultural heritage. The Marsden Fund, managed by the Royal Society Te Apārangi, supports investigator-initiated research across all disciplines, but the government's move aims to redirect resources towards what it deems as more economically beneficial research areas like science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Critics of the decision highlight that this shift could lead to a loss of diverse knowledge and perspectives, potentially affecting New Zealand's cultural and intellectual landscape.
