Tauiwi (Settler) Visioning an Antiracist Health System for Aotearoa Before the National-Led Coalition Government
In Aotearoa, systemic ethnic inequities are longstanding and fuelled by the intergenerational impacts of colonisation and systemic racism. Our health system disadvantages Māori (the Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa) while Pākehā (white settlers) are advantaged. This paper addresses a literature gap by describing a Tauiwi (settler) vision of an antiracist health system. It is a companion piece to a Māori-led paper on the same topic. An exploratory q…
Critical Tiriti Analysis: A prospective policy making tool from Aotearoa New Zealand
Restrictions on Indigenous peoples’ contributions to policymaking pervade post-settler societies like Australia, Canada and Aotearoa. Such effects are observed in spite of agreements like Te Tiriti o Waitangi in Aotearoa and the United Nations’ Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Te Tiriti, negotiated between the British Crown and Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa), may have been entered into honourably by both parties, but the C…
Acknowledging colonialism in the room: Barriers to culturally safe care for Indigenous Peoples
Indigenous peoples worldwide continue to face health inequities compared to non-Indigenous populations. Frameworks like cultural safety can be used to mitigate these inequities; however, this is not widely implemented in healthcare settings. Thus, additional research into barriers to providing culturally safe care are critical. To address this need, we examined the existing barriers to culturally safe care for Indigenous peoples in Canada, and Mā…
Using vignettes about racism from health practice in Aotearoa to generate anti‐racism interventions
Racism is a key modifiable determinant of health that contributes to health inequities in Aotearoa and elsewhere. Experiences of racism occur within the health sector for workers, patients and their whānau (extended family) every day. This paper uses stories of racism from nurses - reworked into vignettes - to examine the dynamics of racism to generate possible micro, meso and macro anti-racism interventions. A critical qualitative design was uti…
Indigenous perspectives on breaking bad news: Ethical considerations for healthcare providers
Most healthcare providers (HCPs) work from ethical principles based on a Western model of practice that may not adhere to the cultural values intrinsic to Indigenous peoples. Breaking bad news (BBN) is an important topic of ethical concern in health research. While much has been documented on BBN globally, the ethical implications of receiving bad news, from an Indigenous patient perspective in particular, is an area that requires further inquiry…
The nature of police shootings in New Zealand: A comparison of mental health and non-mental health events
Hā Ora: Reflecting on a Kaupapa Māori Community-Engaged Co-design Approach to Lung Cancer Research
Co-designed research is gaining prominence within the health care space. Community engagement is a key premise of co-design and is also particularly vital when carrying out kaupapa Māori research. Kaupapa Māori describes a “by Māori, for Māori” approach to research in Aotearoa/New Zealand. This article discusses the research process of Hā Ora: a co-design project underpinned by a kaupapa Māori approach. The objective was to explore the barriers t…
A critical review of the Cabinet Circular on Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the Treaty of Waitangi advice to ministers
The New Zealand state developed from a treaty between the British Crown and hapū (sub-tribes) in 1840. The te Reo (Māori language) text and the English version of the agreement are fundamentally different. Breaches of this treaty and tension over how the political relationship between Māori and the Crown should proceed are ongoing. In 2019, the Cabinet Office issued a Circular instructing bureaucratic advisers of the questions they should address…
The experiences of refugee Muslim women in the Aotearoa New Zealand healthcare system
This study explores the experiences of refugee Muslim women as they accessed and navigated the healthcare system in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). A case‐oriented approach was used, where semi‐structured interviews were carried out with nine Muslim women who arrived in NZ as refugees. Interviews were carried out in 2020, in Hamilton, NZ. Analysis involved a ‘text in context’ approach which employed an iterative and interpretive process, by engaging w…
A critical analysis of te Tiriti o Waitangi application in primary health organisations in Aotearoa New Zealand: Findings from a nationwide survey
Primary health is at the forefront of efforts to address health inequities. Effective primary health care keeps people well and improves longevity and quality of life. The persistence of health inequities, particularly between Indigenous peoples and non-Indigenous peoples globally, suggests that there is a need to strengthen policy and practise. Unique to Aotearoa (New Zealand) is te Tiriti o Waitangi, a treaty negotiated in 1840 between the Brit…
Māori and Tauiwi nurses’ perspectives of anti-racism praxis: Findings from a qualitative pilot study
This pilot study explored Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa (New Zealand)) and Tauiwi (non-Māori) nurses’ perspectives of anti-racism. A critical qualitative design was utilised, informed by kaupapa Māori (Māori philosophical approaches). Senior nurses with more than 7 years experience were recruited for focus groups. Two focus groups, one Māori ( n = 5) and one Tauiwi ( n = 4), were conducted September 2019 in Auckland. Data were analysed us…
Seeing the unseen: Evidence of kaupapa Māori health interventions
Māori in Aotearoa have higher incidence, prevalence and mortality from chronic disease. The dominant narrative in Aotearoa about the reasons for Māori ill health neglects to acknowledge the history of colonisation and failures of the health system, alongside the holistic view of health taken by Māori focusing on collective, whānau-based outcomes. In this article, we review health interventions for chronic disease that have a kaupapa Māori philoso…
Citizens un-interrupted: Practices of inclusion by mental health service users
Inclusion, participation, and the recognition as being an equal is important for the well-being and resilience of all citizens. The notion of homo occupacio describes the persona of the citizen as the self-directed, self-initiated occupational human who takes possession of his or her world through a repertoire of occupations located within the rules and norms of society. For those in society who have been labelled with a psychiatric diagnosis, th…
Doing it together: A story from the co-production field
Purpose – Co-production in the context of mental health research has become something of a buzzword to indicate a project where mental health service users and academics are in a research partnership. The notion of partnership where one party has the weight of academic tradition on its side is a contestable one, so in this paper the authors “write to understand” (Richardson and St Pierre, 2005) as the purpose of this paper is to examine the exper…
Patients’ engagement in primary care: Powerlessness and compounding jeopardy. A qualitative study
BACKGROUND: Primary health care does not adequately respond to populations known to have high needs such as those with compounding jeopardy from chronic conditions, poverty, minority status and age; as such populations report powerlessness. OBJECTIVE: To explore what poor older adults with chronic conditions who mostly belong to ethnic minority groups say they want from clinicians. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Participants were older adults whose ch…
Investigating the influence of African American and African Caribbean race on primary care doctors' decision making about depression
This paper explores differences in how primary care doctors process the clinical presentation of depression by African American and African-Caribbean patients compared with white patients in the US and the UK. The aim is to gain a better understanding of possible pathways by which racial disparities arise in depression care. One hundred and eight doctors described their thought processes after viewing video recorded simulated patients presenting …
A Whānau Ora Journey of Māori Men with Chronic Illness: A Te Korowai analysis
The Oranga Tāne Māori research project explored the views of tāne Māori (Māori men) with a chronic disease or cancer, and their whānau (families), to discover how they experienced their health care in relation to whānau ora (healthy families). The first phase of developing this research involved developing a local whānau ora framework called Te Korowai. Interviews were undertaken with 47 tāne Māori with chronic disease or cancer and 15 support pe…
Developing a Kaupapa Māori Framework for Whānau Ora
The use of whānau ora (healthy families) to represent individual health while also encompassing the collective of family means there is a need to address connectedness that goes beyond wider family structures to include health, education and social service providers. The views of kaumātua (Māori elders) were sought through a series of hui (meetings) to develop an understanding of the term "whānau ora" and its practical application. The hui highli…
When Needs Must: Interpreting Autoethnographical Stories
Autoethnographical research, though interesting and satisfying to conduct, presents a challenge to graduate students who are required to engage in data analysis to meet the needs of their degree. This article tells the collaborative story of how one such student balanced her academic, methodological, ethical, and personal imperatives and developed the notion of motif as a beginning point for the effective interpretation of autoethnographical stor…
Evaluation of Percent Cover Requirements for Revegetation of Disturbed Sites on Alaska's North Slope
On the North Slope of Alaska, attempts have been made to revegetate areas damaged by development. Some revegetation projects strive to achieve specific performance standards based on percent vegetation cover. This study uses data collected from 60 sites over 16 years to compare revegetating sites and natural reference sites. Results demonstrate that percent cover in most revegetation settings has the potential to reach levels comparable to those …
