With their enduring tautoko and aroha, this thesis has come to fruition. I firstly wish to mihi to those who have passed on, they have helped make this thesis what it is. Without the knowledge, legacy and gift of life that they have passed on, I simply could not be. I wish to thank the whenua where I have completed this research and of its nearby maunga, Kakepuku te aroaro ō Kahu where I sought inspiration. During the long, colourful and winding course of this thesis, the energy and taonga that I have received from living in this beautiful part of Aotearoa compelled me to believe that I could not do my thesis from anywhere else. My mind travels to the whenua of Te Wai Pounamu and the times spent gazing out at Te Tai ō Arai Te Uru from Huriawa as a child, dreaming of the future I did not know but tried to see. I feel at complete peace whenever I am in Te Wai Pounamu and I mihi to your mana. To Dr Terry Ryan MBE, kāwai kaitiaki of Ngāi Tahu whakapapa and perhaps the greatest whakapapa expert of our time, you are a living treasure. Your humbleness and utter dedication to the realm of whakapapa, serving and uplifting people, Māori and non-Māori alike, has enriched thousands if not tens of thousands of people’s lives. You are a true example of what I believe is how leaders within Māori society should be. Two special Kaumātua that I deeply acknowledge are Kuao Langsbury and Ginny Paerata in Ōtepoti, both of whom have been instrumental in helping to shape my direction in life. I would not be here at this point today without you. Even though you are of a generation not bought up with Te Reo, the language you speak comes from your heart and directly from our tīpuna. It contains more substance and meaning than the reo spoken by many fluent speakers today, because you have surrounded your words throughout your lives with actual actions of awhi, aroha and support to so many of us. To my supervisors, Professor Hirini Mātunga and Ramzi Addison, thank you so much for your support and effort throughout this long thesis. Also to Professor Yugo Ono of Hokkaido University, I thank you for your words of encouragement and support from afar. I thank also the markers of this thesis for their guidance in pointing out the weak points of my writing and ideas to improve my thesis. To Te Whare Whakakotahi and all involved with the whare at Lincoln University, thank you for the place to stay that I have always received when needed. To Dr Simon Lambert, your support and catch-ups have always been at vital times during my study and have helped overcome all the dramas. To all the library staff, thank you for your tireless work and also to Catherine in the Printery! To Hirini’s secretary Tui, thank you so much for clearing the way through the administrative jungle. I also wish to sincerely acknowledge the great support provided by the Māori and Indigenous Programme (MAI) run by Ngā Pae ō Te Māramatanga, which helps Māori PhD Page 3 of 212 students during their studies. I also wish to thank Te Tapuae ō Rēhua, Te Rūnanga ō Ngāi Tahu, Otākou Marae and also the Rangiriri and Whiwhi Martin Winiata Scholarship administered through the Māori Education Trust, for financial assistance gratefully received during the long course of this thesis that supported me. To Bentham Ohia and Kate Cherrington, who are also great examples of Māori leadership through humbleness, aroha and dedication to inspiring all peoples through education, regardless of who they are, your koha to us during our time of great loss will not be forgotten. To Father Manfred Friedrich of the Catholic Church in Hokkaido Japan and Setchan of House Friendship. Both of you have similarly touched, changed and enriched so many lives across the world. Through your humour, food, support, selfless giving and service to humanity by the helping of anyone in need, from the Philippines and Bangladesh to many other parts of the globe, you have made this world a much better place and are an inspiration to all. To my many indigenous Ainu friends of Japan, iyairaikere, kia kaha tātou. To all my friends in Japan, here and in other parts of the world, including Kanji san, kansha itashimasu, ngā mihi nui ki a koutou kātoa. To Yorizumi Sensei of Asahikawa also, for telling me of your experience of hearing the cacophony of peoples cries carried by the winds up into the mountains as Tokyo was firebombed in WWII; something that no-one should ever have to experience. I thank you for your support and for the many things you have taught me. To my mate Eddie, your talks and humour over kai have kept me laughing and sane. Ben, Mahana & whānau, you guys are just amazing and I thank you endlessly for being there and keeping tūturu to the old ways. Cousin Tui, what can I say, your steady awhi and aroha has guided me throughout and kept me grounded and reminded of the aroha passed on from our tīpuna and other whānau such as my mum, who are no longer with us. To my big bro Stu & whānau, I finally finished it! To all my other whānau, the descendants of George James Kent and Makareti Hinenuiatekawa Coupar, my aunties & uncles and whānaunga in New Zealand and all over the world, absorb the knowledge contained within our whakapapa and our whānau past, of who we are and the gifts handed down to us, we stand with a quiet and humble pride. I also mihi to the whare where I and many others were brought up, stopped by, passed through and sought shelter at “number 10”. My mum, and number 10 were always there for the whānau and those memories remain ingrained in me. To my late mother in law Kyoko san, your quiet dignity and manāki lives on within us, we miss you so much. Last but not least, the final words go to my wife Machiko, who believed and supported me all through this long journey, I humbly thank you for your enduring patience and support over such a long time.

What is a conceptualised ideal Māori governance? Theoretical understanding of governance is almost entirely based on non-indigenous epistemology. Despite Māori (along with other indigenous peoples) having robust intellectual and cultural frameworks to understand governance; substantive research into understanding governance from within indigenous culturally generated frameworks is almost non-existent. Instead, non-indigenous understanding of governance within governance theory is promulgated as the starting and end points of governance; subsequently then unilaterally globally applied to indigenous people, such as Māori. Consequently, Māori culturally generated values, principles and concepts are relegated to mere ancillary importance, being restricted within non-indigenous governance frameworks. Page 5 of 212 Alternatively, governance is portrayed as a procedural outcome of equivalence translation, of non-Māori governance concepts into Māori conceptual space. In rejecting these existing formulations and framing of Māori governance, this research instead undertook a two-stage process, to purposely seek a distinctly Māori cultural perspective of governance. Firstly, use of Kaupapa Māori theory allowed an intellectual space to engage Mātauranga Māori [Māori knowledge]. The second stage invoked Whakapapa (the key basis of Mātauranga Māori) to conceptualise governance from within the creation realms of Te Pō, Te Ao Mārama and Te Kore.

    Mai i te tirohanga ākonga: Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu young adult Māori student narratives about their schooling experiences in the Waitaha (Canterbury) region. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Education in the University of Canterbury. By Averill Elizabeth Manning, University of Canterbury 2018 ABSTRACT This research investigated the narratives of nine Māori young adult students. The primary objective was to gain a deeper understanding of the lived experiences and various challenges confronting this group of Māori students. Many Māori students who enrol at Te Kura as young adults seek to gain the qualifications that they have not achieved while at face-to-face schools. This group of students have sometimes been referred to as a part of New Zealand’s “tail of underachievement” (Education and Science Committee, 2008). The schools these students attended prior to coming onto the roll of Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu [The Correspondence School] were all located in the Waitaha [Canterbury] region of New Zealand’s South Island. Each of these schools was, to varying degrees, dominated by what appeared to be a Eurocentric institutional culture of schooling. The study’s findings resonate with those of previous studies; however, while these student accounts echoed the sentiments of students in previous research studies (Macfarlane, A. H., 2004; Bishop & Berryman, 2006; Penetito, 2005; Manning, 2009) the narratives of each student focused closely up on the challenges these students faced as Māori students in this context. This study adopted a qualitative research methodology underpinned by a Kaupapa Māori [translation] philosophy and narrative research methodology.

    Governed by Contracts: The Development of Indigenous Primary Health Services in Canada, Australia and New Zealand Josée G. Lavoie, PhD Candidate London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Health Policy Unit Abstract This paper is concerned with the emergence of Indigenous primary health care organizations in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. In Canada, the adoption of the 1989 Health Transfer Policy promoted the transfer of on-reserve health services from the federal government to First Nations. In Australia, Aboriginal Community-Controlled Health Services first appeared in the 1970s because of community mobilization. It aims to provide some access to free health care to Aboriginal People. A more recent model, the Primary Health Care Access Program, aims at guaranteeing Aboriginal access to comprehensive primary health care services under the authority of Regional Aboriginal Health Boards. In New Zealand, Maori providers emerged because of the market-like conditions implemented in the 1990s. This study compares the policy and contractual environment put in place to support Indigenous health providers in Canada, Australia and New Zealand, using a case study approach. Results show that the contractual environment does not necessarily match declared policy objectives, especially where competitive models for accessing funding have been implemented.

  • Rotary Club of Christchurch South
    District 9970, PO Box 12-243, Christchurch 8242 Club Bulletin, 26th May 2021, Issue 42 Rotary Club of Christchurch South Christchurch South Rotary Awards Evening On Wednesday evening, we were entertained and privileged to be involved with our third annual Community Awards Evening. Our quest speaker was Matt Brown, who was ably supported by his wife Sarah, and themed their presentation ”She Is Not Your Rehab”. Matt is a survivor of family and childhood sexual abuse, growing up in a family of nine siblings, in South Auckland and in Aranui, where his family moved when he was three. He grew up thinking and believing that physical and emotional abuse was normal. Matt promised himself that he would be a voice for the many people who feel voiceless and have experienced and are still experiencing similar trauma. Matt stared his barbering business on a garden shed in Aranui. As his talent and client list grew, he gained a large following on social media, which he now uses to share messages of inspiration and overcoming. His business, My Fathers Barbers, is now based in Riccarton Road, which is considered to be a Community Space, where men are encouraged to talk and not feel judged, Matt and Sarah regularly visit Christchurch City Mission and Christchurch Men’s Prison, donating their time and offering haircuts. In 2018, Matt partnered with Ministry of Social Welfare for their “It’s not OK campaign” to increase awareness about the roll of barbers in creating safe spaces that allow men to talk, and change their lives. Matt and Sarah have written a book titled “She Is Not Your Rehab”, which is to be published later this year.

  • The Colonial Reinvention of the Hei Tiki: Pounamu, Knowledge and Empire, 1860S-1940S
    The Colonial Reinvention of the Hei Tiki: Pounamu, Knowledge and Empire, 1860s-1940s Kathryn Street A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington Te Whare Wānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika a Māui 2017 Abstract This thesis examines the reinvention of pounamu hei tiki between the 1860s and 1940s. It asks how colonial culture was shaped by engagement with pounamu and its analogous forms greenstone, nephrite, bowenite and jade. The study begins with the exploitation of Ngāi Tahu’s pounamu resource during the West Coast gold rush and concludes with post-World War II measures to prohibit greenstone exports. It establishes that industrially mass-produced pounamu hei tiki were available in New Zealand by 1901 and in Britain by 1903. It sheds new light on the little-known German influence on the commercial greenstone industry. The research demonstrates how Māori leaders maintained a degree of authority in the new Pākehā-dominated industry through patron-client relationships where they exercised creative control. The history also tells a deeper story of the making of colonial culture. The transformation of the greenstone industry created a cultural legacy greater than just the tangible objects of trade. Intangible meanings are also part of the heritage. The acts of making, selling, wearing, admiring, gifting, describing and imagining pieces of greenstone pounamu were expressions of culture in practice. Everyday objects can tell some of these stories and provide accounts of relationships and ways of knowing the world. The pounamu hei tiki speaks to this history because more than merely stone, it is a cultural object and idea.
