We endorse the general observations made in public, principally concerning the Crown’s failure to protect Māori staff and students in Universities and, consequently, its failure to uphold the principles of te Tiriti o Waitangi. We call for a nation-wide review of the University tertiary sector for the purpose of committing to, and accelerating with urgency, a tertiary sector that honours te Tiriti o Waitangi. We call for this nation-wide review to commence now with urgency.

(2013). Home and the Spirit in the Maori World. Paper presented at the He Manawa Whenua Conference, University of Waikato, Hamilton. Nikora, Te Awekotuku and Tamanui (2013) 1 Home and the Spirit in the Maori World Today we explore home as a place of spiritual belonging and continuity and how tangi relies on the genealogical connectedness of ancestral and living communities to care for the tūpāpaku, the human remains, and wairua, the spirit of the deceased, as well as the living. While colonisation and westernisation have changed us, the institution of tangi, our rituals of death and mourning, have remained since pre-encounter times. In the face of death, tangi and its repetitive ritualised pattern of encounter and mourning might be viewed as a lifeline to hold on to as the disturbance and turmoil spawned by death is endured. We begin this paper by returning to the beginning, the place of potentiality to contemplate our spiritual origins and life endowments. We consider the nature of Māori beliefs about a spiritual afterlife and how through the institution of tangi we guide and support the departing spirit on its way. We argue that these rituals of departure and support are most optimally performed within the context of our marae and spiritual landscapes.

  • A Poststructural Analysis of the Health and Wellbeing of Young Lesbian Identified Women in New Zealand
    A Poststructural Analysis of the Health and Wellbeing of Young Lesbian Identified Women in New Zealand. Katie Palmer du Preez A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). 2016 Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences. School of Clinical Sciences. ABSTRACT New Zealand is regarded internationally as a forerunner in the recognition of gay rights. Despite the wide circulation of discourses of gay rights and equality, research shows that young women who identify as lesbian continue to be marginalised by society, which constrains their health and wellbeing. This study was an inquiry into the health and wellbeing of young lesbians in New Zealand, from a poststructural feminist perspective. It posed the research question: what are the discourses in play in relation to the health and wellbeing of young lesbian identified women in New Zealand? The methodology employed was a poststructural feminist discourse analysis, drawing on the philosopher Michel Foucault’s concepts of genealogy and the history of the present. Interviews with young lesbians were conducted in 2012 amid public debate around same- sex marriage. Historical data sources were the extant texts Broadsheet, a feminist periodical with strong health and wellbeing emphasis, and Hansard, a record of New Zealand parliamentary debate. Issues of these publications were selected from the early 1970s, during which the second wave feminist movement emerged, and the mid-1980s when the campaign for Homosexual Law Reform took place in New Zealand. The discourse analysis made visible the production of multiple ‘truths’ of young lesbian health and wellbeing.

Robinson A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand March 2019 Acknowledgements A warm thank you to all the women who took part in this project. To talk about ageing and old age is to acknowledge our own mortality. It can touch our deepest fears and stir all kinds of memories, yet you answered my questions with patience, consideration, interest and kindness. I am deeply grateful. There were so many incredible stories of courage, integrity, and compassion – I wish I could have included them all. I want to thank every single one of you, and all those who came before, who ‘took the road less travelled’ – you have made all the difference. A big thank you to all the people I met on my travels, especially my wonderful hosts in Paekākāriki and Wellington, your hospitality was more than I could ever ask for. Grandma and Grandad – thank you for nurturing your family with love, attentiveness and for passing on your passion and respect for knowledge, you are sorely missed. To Saba and Savta – thank you for your warmth, joy and teaching me the importance of connection. To my parents, Richard and Ettie – your unwavering love and support mean the world to me, I could not have done this without you. Jordan, thank you for always cheering me on. Aunty Margaret and Uncle Anaru, thank you so much for looking out for me throughout this journey, helping me feel at home in Dunedin.
