  • Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington
    Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington September 2017 ISBN 978-0-9941409-4-4 (PDF) Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington About the Author As an American living in New Zealand, I’ve been observing the debate here on immigration and multiculturalism. I arrived in Wellington last year with my Kiwi husband and three-year old son – and while settling in we’ve spent a lot of time discovering the delights of the city and its people. The experience also gave me some perspective on being a migrant far from home. I have a professional interest in South East Asian history, languages and culture - I just completed a PhD on the subject. I speak some Filipino, and am fascinated by the Philippines’ complex history. One of the major phenomena in the Philippines since the 1970s has been the growth of the global Filipino diaspora. That story has often been full of sadness. So I was intrigued by anecdotes of positivity and success from Wellington. Writing about how the migrant Filipino community has settled in New Zealand has been more than just a research project. It has highlighted how migration plays a role in community building. It also has meaning for me and my family’s future here. I really wanted to share some of the stories that I think reflect successful outcomes from immigration over the past thirty years. By Dr Rebecca Townsend 1 Key Points 1. 2. 3.

  • The New Zealand Census– Mortality Study
    The New Zealand Census– Mortality Study Socioeconomic inequalities and adult mortality 1991–94 Published in June 2002 by the Ministry of Health PO Box 5013, Wellington, New Zealand ISBN 0-478-27048-8 (Book) ISBN 0-478-27049-6 (Internet) Blakely T. The New Zealand Census–Mortality Study: Socioeconomic inequalities and adult mortality 1991–94. Wellington: Ministry of Health, 2002. This document is available on the Ministry of Health’s website: http://www.moh.govt.nz/phi and the NZCMS website: http:/www.wnmeds.ac.nz/nzcms-info.html Foreword The New Zealand Census - Mortality Study (NZCMS) is the principal instrument by which the Ministry of Health monitors social inequalities in health. This report provides the technical background to the study, as well as illustrative substantive results. The NZCMS is hosted by the Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Otago, and is led by Dr Tony Blakely. The study has been funded by the Health Research Council since 1998, and co-funded by the Ministry of Health since 2001. The study involves anonymous and probabilistic linkage of census and mortality records, thereby creating cohort (or follow-up) studies of the entire New Zealand population for the three years following each census. The NZCMS is conducted in conjunction with Statistics New Zealand. The linking of the two datasets was undertaken by Statistics New Zealand staff, and access to the linked data was provided by Statistics New Zealand under conditions designed to give effect to the security and confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act 1975. As a census-based cohort study, the NZCMS offers several advantages over other study designs: • direct linkage of exposures to outcomes at the individual level • rich exposure data • great statistical power (because of the large ‘sample’ size).

  • The Case of Kapiti Coast District Council
    THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association Getting an outdoor smokefree policy: the case of Kapiti Coast District Council Leigh Halkett, George Thomson Abstract Aim To explore how a smokefree parks policy was conceived, accepted and developed by and for Kapiti Coast District Council (KCDC). Method Thirteen people involved in the smokefree parks policy process for KCDC were interviewed in person during November–December 2008. Supporting documentation and websites were accessed and reviewed. Results In September 2008 the KCDC agreed to adopt a smokefree parks and playground policy, following an initiative from a smokefree coalition of several public health organisations. The policy was developed collaboratively by this coalition with input from the council, and was supported by key local organisations. The KCDC appears to have adopted a smokefree outdoor areas (SFOA) policy because of demonstrated public support, the relative simplicity and low cost of the policy, the success of similar policies elsewhere, and because of the alignment with desired community outcomes. The challenges included finding funding and allocating staff time for this project. There were also concerns with how the policy would be enforced. Conclusions A collaborative approach amongst health and community groups for achieving SFOA policies works well. The experience with council SFOA policies has considerable impact on the adoption of similar policies by other councils. To maximise this influence, information about the policies needs to be spread nationally by the health and local government sectors. Legislative efforts to reduce smoking and the exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) in New Zealand have included the Smoke-free Environments Act 1990 (SEA) and the Smoke-free Environments Amendment Act 2003 (SEAA).
