A recently released Special Issue of the International Journal of Human Rights Education includes a paper written by Whakauae Director, Dr Amohia Boulton in partnership with colleagues, Dr Glenis Mark (Ngā Puhi, Tainui, Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Koata) and Donna Kerridge (Ngāti Tahinga, Ngāti Mahuta, Ngāti Maniapoto). ‘Rongoā Māori is not a Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Rongoā Māori is a way of life', features alongside papers contributed by other Indigenous women worldwide in the Special Issue titled, Indigenous Women and Research: Global Conversations on Indigeneity, Rights, and Education. Among those included in the Special Issue are papers that explore Indigenous language revitalisation, Indigenous women's approaches to education leadership and the connections between sacred spaces and Indigenous health.
Drs Boulton and Mark, with Donna Kerridge, contributed the only paper included in the Special Issue from Aotearoa New Zealand. The three authors previously worked together on a Ngā Pae o Te Māramatanga Kia Tō Kia Tipu Seeding Excellence research project. They conducted research with participants representing the rongoā, research, scientific and legal sectors. Selected experts in these fields were consulted to gain an understanding of the issues involved in undertaking Rongoā research in a manner that ensures the integrity of the research for the benefit of Rongoā Māori and for Māori people. The research led to the production of Cultural, Ethical, Research, Legal, Scientific (CERLS), Issues of Rongoā Māori, a guideline for researchers and healers engaged in Rongoā research. Whakauae, in conjunction with Ngā Pae o Te Māramatanga, launched the CERLS guideline for researchers and healers engaged in Rongoā research late in 2018.
