The beautiful kiwi was given the name Tuia by Ngāti Waewae – meaning binding everybody together, whakapapa and nature. This particular kiwi was one of the many rescued from the Stockton Mine and placed in a well-protected crèche named Crèche du Bois Gentil (Friendly Forest Kiwi Crèche). As Tuia is still very young and very fragile it was hard for the kaiārahi to record the gender and weight. Tuia is a koha from Ngāti Waewae to Ngāti Apa. Ātaahua koe Tuia.

  • Christchurch Journalists' Collective Trauma Experience and The
    July 1, 2014 Quake aftermath: Christchurch journalists' collective trauma experience and the implications for their reporting. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Ph.D in Journalism by Sean Scanlon -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- University of Canterbury Christchurch New Zealand 2014 1 Abstract: On February 22, 2011, Christchurch-based journalists were jolted out of their normal work routine by a large 6.3 magnitude earthquake that killed 185 people, wrecked the city and forced reporters to reappraise their journalism. This study considers how the earthquake affected journalists’ relationship to the community, their use of sources and news selection. A theory of collective trauma is used to explain the changes that journalists made to their reporting practice. Specifically, Christchurch journalists had a greater identification and attachment to their audience post-earthquake. Journalists viewed themselves as part of the earthquake story, which prompted them to view sources differently, use those sources differently and see advocacy as a keystone of their news work after the disaster. This study adds to a growing scholarship about journalists and trauma, but focuses on what the event meant for local reporters’ choice of sources and news selection rather than measuring rates of psychological distress. 2 Acknowledgments I have many people to thank for helping me complete this study. Being a journalist by training and not an academic has made the experience an interesting one, which required the guidance of many more people than I can name. First, thanks to my patient and wise supervisors Jim Tully and Donald Matheson. I asked for critical feedback and always appreciated your honest responses and guidance.

  • Community Consultation in Christchurch's
    Share an Idea, spare a thought: Community consultation in Christchurch’s time-bound post-earthquake rebuild Sally Carlton* University of Canterbury, New Zealand Abstract: The Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Act 2011 (CER Act), brought into effect after the 22 February 2011 earthquake which devastated the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, outlines as its second purpose the imperative ‘to enable community participation in the planning of the recovery of affected communities without impeding a focused, timely, and expedited recovery’. The Act thus clearly highlights the importance of community participation and a time-bound recovery process. Viewing the fundamental disconnect between these two aims through the lens of community consultation, this article demonstrates that the necessity of a timely recovery works against the generation of meaningful community participation, providing an insight into the strain placed on democratic processes and questioning whether the social right to housing and the political right to opinion can both be adequately met during times of difficulty engendered by natural disaster. Keywords: Christchurch, consultation, democracy, housing, opinion, recovery, rights *[email protected] It is clear from the CER Act that CERA has been instructed to consult with affected communities in enabling recovery to take place. We do not see this taking place. – Rally for Democracy Committee, ‘Open Letter to the Prime Minister of New Zealand’, 1 December 2012 1. Introduction The city of Christchurch, New Zealand, was hit by a series of devastating earthquakes in 2010–11. With approximately 800 buildings in the city centre destroyed and 7,000 homes ‘red zoned’ (declared uneconomically viable for repair),1 the earthquakes displaced many residents from their homes and forced others to live in substandard conditions – a situation which challenges the human right to housing.
