Indigenous Small Home Living
This study explored whether functional, accessible, affordable, buildable (FAAB) small homes (45–70 m2) can meet the needs and aspirations of whānau Māori. Seventeen participants shared their experiences and design preferences through interviews and interactive activities. Analysis was informed by Te Whare Tapa Whā (Durie, 1985), a Māori model of wellbeing that recognises the interconnectedness of spiritual, emotional, physical, and whānau dimens…
Time for a New Norm
BACKGROUND: Participating in prenatal screening for chromosomal conditions is premised on an informed choice to accept or decline. AIM: The aims of this paper are to describe people's experiences of informed choice and how these relate to the experience of prenatal screening. METHOD: Thirty-eight people were recruited and their experiences were explored through narrative enquiry, following an iterative and in-depth reflexive analysis. FINDINGS: I…
Covid-19 equity response case study
The MEKE (Move, Engage, Konnect, Evolve) Initiative is a pro-equity intervention developed by Māori (Indigenous people of New Zealand) for Māori that promotes positive community wellbeing through unity. A case study approach and appreciative inquiry were used to gather the perceptions of the MEKE Initiative from community members through interviews, focus groups, and feedback forms. The findings highlight the importance of multi-organisational pa…
Intergenerational resiliencies of young Māori sole mothers
Young Māori (Indigenous peoples of New Zealand) mothers navigating sole parenthood in Aotearoa New Zealand face inequitable access to and quality of mental health and wellness care. This article explores service inequities for Māori communities with data drawn from interviews with young Māori mother sole parents ( n = 5); as well as interviews with whānau (family) members ( n = 6), conducted in the second year of a kaupapa Māori (Māori philosophy…
Reinvigorating Homeplaces the Impact of House Repairs on Māori Wellbeing
For many Māori, it is the presence of their kin that transforms a dwelling into a home. However, when that dwelling needs repairs, it can compromise health and wellbeing and be a barrier to homemaking. Two Kaupapa Māori qualitative studies in Hawke’s Bay interviewed 24 whānau members living in 18 whānau-owned houses about the impact of government-funded critical house repairs. Thematic analysis highlighted that critical repairs were primarily nee…
Capturing Bhutan's Cultural Uniqueness
Bhutan's overarching development paradigm of Gross National Happiness (GNH) promotes a harmonious balance between material and non-material dimensions. But Bhutan's evaluation practice has not yet adopted the principles of GNH, preventing evaluation findings and recommendations from aligning with the priorities of GNH. This article makes the case that Culturally Responsive Evaluation (CRE) is a potential way that Bhutan can ensure evaluation is a…
Culturally Safe Neonatal Care
The burden of health inequities borne by Indigenous peoples can be overwhelming, especially when mothers and newborns' lives are at stake and health services seem slow to invest in responsiveness. In Aotearoa (New Zealand), urgent action is required to eliminate persistent systemic inequities for Māori (Indigenous) whānau (family collectives that extend beyond the household). This Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, for Māori) qualitative study aimed to exp…
Te Whare Pora a Hine-te-iwaiwa
Te Whare Pora a Hine-te-iwaiwa (Te Whare Pora), a Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa (New Zealand)) approach to the prevention of sudden infant death, posits that immersion in traditional knowledge and the weaving of the wahakura (woven flax bassinet) as a safe infant sleep space boosts the resilience of pregnant wāhine Māori (Māori women) and the post-neonatal safety of their infants. Our data are drawn from the observations, conversations an…
Te Pou
Purpose Within this paper we evaluate the inclusion of the family voice in the domestic homicide review process. We use an Indigenous rubric (Te Pou) developed to ensure a culturally appropriate framework for conducting fatality reviews. We further draw on the creative potential of Indigenous knowledge systems, applying them alongside Western understandings of the engagement of family in homicide reviews, to seed new knowledge. This review has be…
Tenure insecurity, precarious housing and hidden homelessness among older renters in New Zealand
Homelessness among older people is growing in western countries including New Zealand. The rise in renting among middle-aged and older people highlights tenure insecurity and the risk of homelessness for the first time in later life. We report on a dataset drawn from a larger project in which 108 tenants aged 55 and older were interviewed. Of those, nineteen had experienced homelessness (as defined by Statistics New Zealand) within the previous f…
He Tamariki Kokoti Tau
Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa New Zealand) bear an unequal burden of poor perinatal health outcomes, including preterm birth. An infant arriving preterm disrupts the birth imaginary of whānau (family collectives) and situates them in a foreign health environment that may not be culturally safe and nurturing. A cross-sectional interpretative phenomenological analysis of first interviews with 19 whānau participating in a Kaupapa Māori (by, …
Mahi aroha
In 2010 and 2011 the Canterbury earthquakes prompted expressions of mahi aroha – work done by Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa New Zealand) out of a love for the people – in the emergency context of a natural disaster. Similarly, the Covid‐19 level 4 lockdown that began in the last week of March 2020 showcased Māori caring for one another in the context of a pandemic. Whether people were paid or unpaid, out in their communities as essential …

E Hine
E Hine was a longitudinal qualitative Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, for Māori) research study involving 44 young Māori women who were first interviewed in 2012‐2013 and followed through their pregnancies and until their babies were 2 years old. The present analysis of the E Hine database examines the young women's experiences of accessing welfare benefits through Work and Income. Welfare benefits were not the central focus of the E Hine study, but oft…
Uncovering social structures and informational prejudices to reduce inequity in delivery and uptake of new molecular technologies
Advances in molecular technologies have the potential to help remedy health inequities through earlier detection and prevention; if, however, their delivery and uptake (and therefore any benefits associated with such testing) are not more carefully considered, there is a very real risk that existing inequities in access and use will be further exacerbated. We argue this risk relates to the way that information and knowledge about the technology i…
The impact on whānau wellbeing
The impact on whānau wellbeing
Mahi Aroha
The Covid-19 lockdown over March to May 2020 meant households became their own "bubbles", with residents physically interacting only with those in their household and staying close to home.Mäori leaders recognised the potential of the lockdown to exacerbate whänau vulnerability due to confinement, financial hardship and, depending on their household, issues of crowding or isolation.Steps were quickly taken to support households with care packages…
Life when renting for older Māori
The proportion of older Māori (55+ years) living in rental accommodation is set to rise as home ownership has become less attainable. To anticipate what the future of rental accommodation may hold for older Māori, 42 older Māori (18 men, 24 women) renters in the Hawke’s Bay region of Aotearoa New Zealand were asked about their experiences. Participants had moved to their current home to be closer to whānau (extended family, family group) or out o…
Measuring Māori children’s wellbeing
The Annual Child Poverty Monitor reports on child poverty measures and child-poverty-related indicators. Around one in three Mori children are defined as living in poverty. While the Monitor is a prompt for government action to reduce child poverty, it has been criticised as presenting a negative view of the lives of Mori children and whnau. This paper considers whether a fuller picture of the lived realities of Mori children can be gained from r…
A qualitative inquiry into women’s experiences of severe maternal morbidity
Severe acute maternal morbidity (SMM) is a near‐death experience during pregnancy, childbirth or termination of a pregnancy. Nine women recruited from hospital intensive care or high dependency units following the birth of their baby participated in two qualitative interviews about their SMM experience. The interpretative phenomenological analysis led to the identification of three superordinate themes related to participants: moving from a state…
Integration Tensions and Possibilities
Philosophic tensions arise in bringing together research agendas associated with the transformative paradigm and Indigenous peoples because of the latter's history of colonization and betrayal. The alliance between the transformative and Indigenous agendas is therefore not an entirely comfortable fit. However, we argue that Indigenous voices can be brought into the transformative paradigm as a way of stretching and enriching understandings of the…
Lived Realities
This paper explores the birthing experiences of 16 pregnant Māori women under 20 years of age who were involved in E Hine, a Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, for Māori) longitudinal qualitative research study of young Māori women's journeys through pregnancy and into motherhood that ran from 2010 to 2013. This study provided these young women with an opportunity to share their birthing experiences during kanohi-ki-te-kanohi (face-to-face) interviews. Int…
E Hine
Despite improved access to health services in Aotearoa New Zealand there remains a significant socio-economic and health gap between Māori (Indigenous New Zealanders) and Pākehā (non-Māori). E Hine (Girl) is a qualitative Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, for Māori) research project seeking to identify barriers and facilitators to positive health outcomes for young Māori mothers (under 20 years) and their infants. We present the findings of a discourse an…
Lessons on Decolonizing Evaluation from Kaupapa Māori Evaluation
Kaupapa Māori is literally a Māori way. It is a reclaiming by Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa New Zealand) of a future that is founded within a Māori worldview; a future where cultural knowledge and values inform understandings of and responses to Māori needs, priorities, and aspirations. Self-determination, cultural aspirations, and the importance of familial relationships and collectivity are among the central elements evident in Kaupapa …

Developing a Kaupapa Māori Research Project to Help Reduce Health Disparities Experienced by Young Māori Women and Their Babies
Young Māori mothers experience stigma and their babies experience poor health outcomes. Interventions to reduce these health disparities need to understand the lives of these young women. This paper describes consultation to seek agreement for research with young Māori mothers to be conducted in two regions. Consultation occurred with tribal authorities, Māori health providers, district health boards, and community stakeholders. Endorsement was g…
Talking Ourselves UP
The purpose of this paper is to examine the nature of talk and its place within kaupapa Māori research. Just as many Māori occasions rely on talk1 to define context and kaupapa, so do research and principles often seek to represent the talk of participants as defining their context and their kaupapa. Within these research processes there are ample opportunities for participants to be both marginalised and/or (re)victimised. The care taken within …

Researching our Relations
Marginalisation occurs when a group of people are pushed to the periphery of a society. Many Māori reside at the margins of 'mainstream' society, while others are at the margins of Māori society. The present paper explores how 'by Māori, for Māori' research and evaluation can create spaces for voices from the margins to be heard. The paper arose out of a series of hui in which papers on the notion of marginalisation and Māori were presented and d…
Claiming Interstitial Space for Multicultural, Transdisciplinary Research Through Community-up Values
The development of Māori (Indigenous New Zealanders) research capacity over the past 20 years now begs the question of how Māori and Tauiwi (non-Māori) researchers might authentically partner and undertake transdisciplinary research that upholds the integrity and aspirations of both parties. In this article, the notion of interstitial space is suggested as a middle ground whereby researchers can acknowledge their own worldviews and come together …

A Proportional Hazards Regression Analysis of Employee Turnover Among Nurses in New Zealand
Research on employee turnover has usually relied on employment status (quitters vs. stayers) to index the criterion variable (turnover), and on multiple regression (MR) to model the turnover process. In the present study, which was based on a national sample of nurses in New Zealand (n = 1249), we improved the criterion variable by combining employment status with a continuous measure, namely, job survival duration (length of employment starting …

Children's understanding of public ownership
Children's understanding of public ownership was examined in two studies. In the first, descriptive study, children in three age groups (5–6, 8–9. and 11–12 years) were interviewed about ownership of their school and the city's buses. The hypothesis, that with increasing age the children's understanding of public ownership would change from being based on physical to abstract concepts, was supported. In the second, experimental study, a different…

Disrupting the sexual double standard
Despite significant changes in the social landscape over the past two decades, much ethnographic research suggests that young women's negotiations of (hetero)sexuality remain dominated by the sexual double standard. Within the sexual double standard, an active, desiring sexuality is positively regarded in men, but denigrated and regulated by negative labelling in women. This article analyses young women's talk on the subject of negotiating (heter…

An indigenous approach to explore health-related experiences among Māori parents
Given the extent and persistence of ethnic disparities in childhood asthma management, it is imperative that an indigenous approach be taken to understanding the core issues facing Māori families. By conducting community-partnership research underpinned by an indigenous methodology, and employing a range of appropriate methods, we have successfully recruited and retained a cohort of Māori families with experiences of childhood asthma. We aim to m…
