Maori Perspectives on
Kaupapa Maori and Psychology - Moe Milne, August 2005.
In 2003, in response to
expressions of interest arising from the possibilities presented by the pending
Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (2004), the New Zealand
Psychologists Board commissioned Moe Milne to lead a consultation process with
Maori. The consultation process was to focus on the ascertaining the views of
key informants on new pathways in the relationship between psychology in
Aotearoa/New Zealand and kaupapa Maori education, training and practice
relating to psychology. This report presents an exploration of the views of
Maori informants around the country and covers their views on the nature of
psychology and the state of the current relationship between psychological
theory and practice, tikanga Maori and Maori visions and aspirations.
Note: This paper is presented in its original form as submitted to the
Board by the author. Any views or opinions expressed in the report
(unless otherwise stated) should not be read as representing the position
of the New Zealand Psychologists Board.
