Whaowhia te kete mātauranga, He toi kahurangi a mātauranga Māori: Fill the basket of knowledge with the jewels of Mātauranga Māori
A public lecture by Professor Annemarie Gillies PhD – Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Awa, Te Whānau-ā-Apanui and Te Arawa.
Annemarie’s session will be chaired by Professor David Tipene-Leach. Following an earlier career as a GP, David has become acknowledged as a leading researcher in the areas of Māori public health, and archiving of whānau and iwi records and taonga. David is co-Director (with Annemari) of Te Kura i Awarua Rangahau Māori Centre, within Research at EIT.
This presentation is a conversation about a number of experiences in the research and rangahau arena. Mātauranga Māori is an espistemological foundation or basis that has embedded knowledge systems, worldviews, philosophical ideas, thoughts, and ways of doing things, that have been handed down from our ancestors. These have informed current generations and provided direction for future generations. Research informed by mātauranga Māori provides unique insights, understandings, and differing dimensions that frequently challenge western thinking, paradigms, and science. However, the potential highlighted in these mātauranga Māori conversations often emerged as exemplars of good practice in research, the promise of better societal outcomes, better relationships with whānau and hapū, and of course the privileging of mātauranga Māori through people, places, whakapapa, art, whakairo, waiata and so on.
