This web resource provides a picture of the health status of the Māori population compared with non-Māori. A descriptive analysis of the data is provided along with statistical information accessible in an easy-to-use format (graphs and tables).

The data is drawn primarily from Tatau Kahukura: Māori Health Chart Book. It is intended that further data will be added over time, with the aim of providing the most recent data available to monitor the health status of Māori.
