A Treaty Understanding of Hauora in Aotearoa – New Zealand TUHA-NZ A Treaty Understanding of Hauora in Aotearoa – New Zealand Auckland 12th & 13th May 2011 Guide for workshop • Introductions • The Treaty - the short story • Where do we fit • Treaty - the challenges • The story so far • TUHA-NZ – Background • Faces of Maori – Framework document – Exercise • Loss – Solutions – Summary Introductions • Who are you • Family • Where is home for you • Ancestry • Where do you fit in Health Promotion • 1 to 10 on you knowledge of things Maori [10 high] Maori Demography Summary of main trends • Definition of Maori has changed over time • Current population (ethnic Maori) 526,281 and growing • Largely urban - 1 in 4 live in greater Auckland region • Median age 22 years - Ngai Tahu 23 years Australian Aboriginal 20 years – All New Zealand 33 years • 4% of Maori Population is over 65 • Proportion of Maori children projected to be 1/3 by 2051 • Maori population will comprise about 22% of total New Zealand population by 2051. Where do we in the world? Relationships – the big picture • 230 countries – 180 developing countries or 3rd world – 50 developed or 1st world – 30 OECD (Organisation for Economic & Community Development) • How do Maori stack up as 4th World'ers (indigenous 1st world’ers) Where we fit - conclusion • We (New Zealand) belong to the “Koru Club” of nations and compare ourselves to few countries - 30 or 50 • We are regarded as honest, corrupt free and our data is robust • We are small and malleable • We are an economic, political, and sociological anomaly amongst our friends The story so far • Difficult to present Maori history or Pakeha history in isolation, one without the other would be incomplete, therefore inaccurate. • Our history is one of interaction - in social, sexual, economic, political, and legal terms. • Pakeha politics and society were profoundly effected by Maori influence, as Maori were by Pakeha. • Maori were both reactive and pro-active to the colonial situation, selecting what they accepted to make the most of the situation. The story so far • Ours is a history of conflict – Maori-Maori, Pakeha-Maori, Pakeha- Pakeha, the New Zealand Wars (Maori Land Wars) was the only war that Britain has never won since Queen Victoria ascended the throne • Maori-Pakeha relationships have always been dynamic, changing as we grow as a nation and relationships differed regionally, from theatres of war to theatres of attrition • Relationships evolved far more through acculturation and exchange than through conflict • However, the two cultures did not meet as equals, in reality one side became a coloniser and the other colonised The story so far • As warrior people, in some ways it would have been easier if there had been an outright victor, instead of the expectation and eventual myth of equality. (Treaty) • Maori have had to live and continue to live in two worlds. Traditional / customary law co-existed with participation in Pakeha society. (brown veil) • Pakeha have seldom had to cope with such tension, therefore while the tension to pakeha eyes is a recent phenomena it has always existed for maori. (Cognitive dissonance) • Maori and Pakeha have often been talking past each other. In every step of the relationship has been the possibility of misunderstanding and confusion, quite apart from anything more blameworthy MAORI Many People Many Faces Traditionalist • Native speaker • Belongs to older generation • Practices traditional beliefs • History is clear • Raised within the culture Traditionalist • Strong spiritual base • Extensive cultural knowledge • In tune with environment • Strong sense of kinship • Responsible for passing on knowledge New Traditionalist • “Born again Maori” • Younger generation • Angry • De-colonised (re-programmed) • Articulate New Traditionalist • Can be racist • Group oriented • Back to the land, traditions • Mixture of belief systems from various sources • Strident (on a mission) New Traditionalist • Open display (taonga, moko) • May be unwilling to learn knowledge behind beliefs • Indoctrinated as young adults searching for identity • Can impose values and beliefs on others Universal Maori • Comfortable in both worlds • Appreciates gifts of both worlds • Adaptable • Is a “Mover and Shaker” • Accommodating Universal Maori • Anti – racist • Socially – conscious • Comfortable with both languages • Good health spiritually and physically • Has vision for the future • New intelligentsia Universal Maori • In tune with the environment • Has “courage of heart” • Values Maori culture, without putting down other cultures • Few in numbers, but increasing • New middle class Mainstream Maori • Has adopted Pakeha norms • Does not value traditional beliefs • Has jumped class economically • Has paid own social and cultural costs • Materialistic • Well assimilated by late 20’s Mainstream Maori • Seen by other Maori as having “me” identity • Often possesses technical skills • Seen as “sell out” by traditionalists and new traditionalists • Competitive • Accepts hierarchical power Searching Souls • Identity confusion • Cultural & Social breakdown • Constant state of flux • Always in limbo • mixture of beliefs Searching Souls • Constant state of grief • Acting out • Deprived syndrome • Ill prepared for any changes • Epitomises social problems Searching Souls • Poorly educated • Caught in poverty trap • Few positive Maori role models • Politically naive • Utterly powerless Vacuum Packed (adopted) • Confused • Acquiescent (accommodating) • Treated by Maori in an unfamiliar way • Viewed by some Pakeha differently • Experts at avoiding cultural situations Vacuum Packed (adopted) • Silent, lonely grieving • Search for birth parent • Need to identify iwi • Possible family denial • I’ve found them, what now?

Ko te Kōauau: Its historical journey, aspects of construction, socio-cultural relevance, and performance A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts at the University of Waikato by Jo’el Komene ______ University of Waikato 2008 -i- Tuhinga Whakarāpopoto Abstract In recent years there has been a revival of interest in traditional Māori musical instruments, including the Kōauau (sometimes called a “flute”). Most of the information on record is from Pākehā perspectives of music and culture. This thesis studies Kōauau in a Māori framework, giving weight to traditional Māori knowledge and practices, while bringing together much scattered information. The research links the origins/whakapapa of the Kōauau to the gods and their natural world, especially Hineraukatauri. The thesis analyses the materials used for Kōauau, the circumstances under which materials were acquired, their significance, design and methods of construction, and the tools employed in making Kōauau.

  • The Waitangi Tribunal's WAI 2575 Report
    HHr Health and Human Rights Journal The Waitangi Tribunal’s WAI 2575 Report: ImplicationsHHR_final_logo_alone.indd 1 10/19/15 10:53 AM for Decolonizing Health Systems heather came, dominic o’sullivan, jacquie kidd, and timothy mccreanor Abstract Te Tiriti o Waitangi, a treaty negotiated between Māori (the Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa) and the British Crown, affirmed Māori sovereignty and guaranteed the protection of hauora (health). The Waitangi Tribunal, established in 1975 to investigate alleged breaches of the agreement, released a major report in 2019 (registered as WAI 2575) about breaches of te Tiriti within the health sector in relation to primary care, legislation, and health policy. This article explores the implications of this report for the New Zealand health sector and the decolonial transformation of health systems. The tribunal found that the Crown has systematically contravened obligations under te Tiriti across the health sector. We complement the tribunal’s findings, through critical analysis, to make five substantive recommendations: (1) the adoption of Tiriti-compliant legislation and policy; (2) recognition of extant Māori political authority (tino rangatiratanga); (3) strengthening of accountability mechanisms; (4) investment in Māori health; and (5) embedding equity and anti-racism within the health sector. These recommendations are critical for upholding te Tiriti obligations. We see these requirements as making significant contributions to decolonizing health systems and policy in Aotearoa and thereby contributing to aspirations for health equity as a transformative concept.

Dominic O’Sullivan is Associate Professor at the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Charles Sturt University, Canberra, Australia.

Overall, the findings show that most Māori feel positive about their lives. This is despite many also experiencing considerable difficulties on a daily basis that are disproportionate to non-Māori. Besides a higher burden of depression, anxiety and psychological distress, for example, a significantly higher proportion of Māori than non-Māori also consider the last 12 months as being among their most difficult ever.

  • He Kete Hauora Taia Final
    HE KETE HAUORA TAIAO A BICULTURAL ECOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK By SARA MELISSA BELCHER A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2020 Tuhinga whakarāpopoto: Abstract Ka mau tonu ngā taonga tapu o ngā matua tupuna Koinei ngā taonga i tuku iho, na te ātua Hold fast to the treasures of the ancestors For they are the treasures that have been handed down to us by God’ (Dymond, 2013, p. 274) Ecologists, resource managers, landowners and iwi generally strive to manage biodiversity on their whenua as obliged by legislation. This may include restoration, protection, the mitigation of negative human impacts, or the prevention of further habitat loss. Mainstream ecological science and resource management (ERM) usually guides management decisions and provides evidence of management effectiveness. However, ecological science can struggle with stochastic and complex biological systems. Māori have hundreds of years of environmental knowledge and understanding that could be utilised by mainstream resource managers to enhance society's combined knowledge. An assessment tool that places mātauranga at its core can introduce a Māori perspective, privilege Māori knowledge, enable holistic co-management, re/introduce social values and create a common ground on which the two paradigms can connect. He Kete Hauora Taiao is an environmental assessment framework for terrestrial habitats constructed on Māori ecological health indicators by applying them to quantitative ecological scientific data. He Kete Hauora Taiao is built on the Driver – Pressure – State/Condition – Indicator – Response framework (K. F. D. Hughey, Cullen, Kerr, & Cook, 2004).

He Korowai Oranga, the Māori Health Strategy was originally launched in 2002, and provided a ten- year outlook with an overall aim of whānau ora. The Strategy was then refreshed in 2014, with an expanded aim of pae ora – healthy futures – comprising three key elements: mauri ora – healthy individuals; whānau ora – healthy families; and wai ora – healthy environments. The implementation of the original Strategy was guided by two Māori Health Action Plans, which concluded prior to the refresh of the Strategy in 2014.
