James Barnes
In 1981 James Barnes assisted Hiwi Tauroa the New Zealand Race Relations Conciliator, develop a Consultation and Communication Strategy to educate New Zealand communities on things Māori (Taha Māori).
This interest in race relations took James Barnes to Trompso, Norway in 1990 to attend the 6th General Assembly of the World Council of Indigenous Peoples, representing the Māori Legal Service Ngā Kaiwhakamarama I Ngā Ture, where he was appointed Special Rapporteur for the Conference.
In appreciation of the contribution made to race relations in New Zealand, Hiwi Tauroa provided JBA with its vision statement, “Tuhonoa Mārie – Forward together in Peace”, which the Company has proudly maintained to this day. This vision drives JBA to work closely with Clients and Business Partners, to empower them to achieve positive outcomes for themselves and the communities of interest they operate in. In this regard, the REM methodology developed by James Barnes has been proven reliable.
In 2001, James Barnes was selected by the NGO Sector of New Zealand to be a member of the Official New Zealand Government Delegation to the United Nations World Conference Against Racism held in Durban South Africa. He was the only non-Government member of the Delegation.
In 2011 James Barnes was appointed to the Advisory Board of the New Zealand Victoria University of Wellington Centre for Applied Cross-cultural Research. The Centre is "a recognised international heavyweight in the area of cross-cultural research".
JBA Global Limited is a company formed to license REM World™, a “Software as a Service” System, which brings together all the elements of the REM methodology into an automated electronic process that will make the JBA brand competitive in the 21st century and beyond.
REM World™ is 100% owned by James Barnes personally.
