He Mahi Tirohanga Building the Māori Health Research Workforce: A Literature Review, authored by Ema Tu'akoi (Ngāti Whakaue, Ngāti Tūwharetoa ki Taupō, Ngāti Maru ki Hauraki, Tongatapu) dives into the existing literature concerning the Māori health research workforce. Specifically, she looks at what is currently being done to increase Māori health research workforce capacity and capability in light of a wide range of barriers that impact Māori health. The paper highlights gaps in the existing literature, and the value of whakawhanaungatanga for tauira in the education sector.
The Whakauae Raro Occasional Paper Series was started in 2020 to provide a forum for original research, review, commentary, and reflective essays on issues of relevance to whānau, hapū and Iwi Māori. Relevant to today, Ema believes that the future growth of the Māori health research workforce must also be considered as part of the larger health reforms in Aotearoa New Zealand.
