  • Te Rau Puawai Student Profiles Kia Ora Doc 2017
    TE RAU PUAWAI STUDENT PROFILES KIA ORA DOC 2017 TE RAU PUAWAI The sole focus for Te Rau Puawai is the education and retention of Maori in mental health related tertiary education. Te Rau Puawai has developed a learning support model which incorporates Māori ways of living and learning into the learning experience of Māori students studying in a mainstream university. The basis of the model is whakawhanaungatanga, manaaki, and tautoko as it encourages the bursars to work together as a whānau and participate in collective learning. While other scholarship programmes focus solely on financial support, Te Rau Puawai realises the importance of psychological as well as financial support. This is what differentiates Te Rau Puawai from other scholarship programmes. TE RAU PUAWAI FOREWORD - EMERITUS PROFESSOR SIR MASON DURIE E te Whānau o Te Rau Puawai, Tena koutou katoa. Congratulations to those of you who have been awarded bursaries for 2017. Well done. You are following in the footsteps of more than 400 Te Rau Puawai graduates in Psychology, Social Work, Disability, Nursing, Maori Health & Studies, Public health, Rehabilitation, Midwifery, Health Management, and Health Science. Obtaining a Te Rau Puawai bursary, however, is of course a double-edged sword. On the one hand the bursary will help you on your way to completing a health qualification but on the other hand it also carries with it quite large expectations. We want you to succeed and, more to the point, we also want you to make significant contributions to the health of our people. The Māori health workforce has increased dramatically over the past three or so decades and we now have more than a critical mass of well qualified people working in a wide range of areas.
