Investigations Involving Indigenous Communities in New Zealand
Original Program Date :
Length: 42 Minutes
The broadening appreciation of obligations to indigenous and Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi), together with the significant participation of Māori in and across all sectors, mean inevitably, that Pākeha (non-Māori) investigators, who are engaged by Māori and/or work with Māori, will need to develop an understanding of Te Ao Māori (the world view from Māori). This session will focus on what investigators should be aware of when working with Māori, and how investigations involving Māori may be conducted appropriately.
