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. (Click here to open the Report - 126Kb)
