Whakauae contributes to exclusive post-Covid-19 webinar series

 

The Public Service Association's Te Pukenga Here Tikanga Mahi post-Covid-19 webinars are being billed by the PSA as an exclusive series “bringing together progressive voices … ”  and  “brightest minds” from across Aotearoa New Zealand. Dr Amohia Boulton (Whakauae Research for Māori Health and Development) and Deb Te Kawa (DTK and Associates) together present a webinar, one in the series of ten, that focus on possible futures for our public and community services.

The webinar series launched in April 2020 with youth climate advocate, Sophie Handford's  presentation entitled, Reimagining New Zealand's journey to a zero carbon future, and is scheduled to conclude in early September 2020. Webinars to date have explored the impact of Covid-19 in a variety of settings along with potential ways of moving forward post-pandemic. In their webinar, Amohia and Deb highlight that Te Ao Māori is well positioned to accommodate the best interests of Māori in the context of a global pandemic that the wider world is poorly positioned to deal with. ‘Raising waka, not just yachts' proposes that timely and solid state investment in Māori institutions, in Whānau Ora commissioning agencies and in Iwi is a sure-fire way to minimise the inevitable inequitable post-pandemic outcomes for Māori.
