Cultivating Inclusive Healthcare Ecosystems
Non-Māori with mental health and substance use conditions experience relative privilege evident in health outcomes when compared to Māori (the Indigenous population) in New Zealand. This paper will explore physical healthcare experiences for Māori with a mental health and/or substance use condition. This qualitative study was one component of the Tupuānuku Project investigating the enablers and barriers that effect access to quality physical heal…
Kotahitanga—connection, unity, and belonging
In Aotearoa New Zealand, perinatal mental health outcomes and maternal suicide rates demonstrate that Māori (the Indigenous peoples of New Zealand) mothers and birthing parents have the worst outcomes relative to other ethnic groups. Little research exists exploring Indigenous approaches to perinatal mental health or the perspectives of Indigenous peoples on perinatal mental health interventions. This article explores a kaupapa Māori (Māori appro…
They were my anchors” Māori with perinatal mental illness identify culturally safe and clinically excellent health care
Quality clinical care occurs within a system, and structural components of the health system can influence practice and impact provision of care. It is systemic changes that will facilitate clinicians' contribution to equitable outcomes for Māori, through the creation of services that support clinicians to prioritise working with whānau, engage in culturally safe practice, and address the barriers that prevent Māori from accessing evidence-based …

Indigenous research participants who have mental illness and who are also pregnant or in the early stages of parenting present intersecting ethi…

Health systems and clinicians need to focus quality improvement processes on access to and delivery of equitable physical healthcare to people with MHSUC, address stereotypes about people with MHSUC and improve integration of mental and physical healthcare
It absolutely needs to move out of that structure’
A commitment to equity when implementing structural change is needed, including ongoing evaluation and refinement. This paper provides specific recommendations that should be considered in health service redesign to ensure the New Zealand mental health system meets the needs of Māori patients with BD and their whānau
The Transformative Potential of Kaupapa Māori Research and Indigenous Methodologies
This article presents a description of a specific Indigenous research methodology, Kaupapa Māori Research (KMR), followed by a discussion of the potential contribution that KMR and other Indigenous frameworks make toward understanding and addressing widespread mental health inequities affecting the world's Indigenous peoples. The contribution of existing qualitative KMR to the fields of health and mental health in New Zealand is discussed, and in…
