He Korowai Oranga - Key Thread: Rangtiratanga

Rangtiratanga
He Korowai Oranga acknowledges whānau, hapū, iwi and Māori aspirations for rangatiratanga to have control over the direction and shape of their own institutions, communities and development as a people.

Involving iwi in decision-making as representatives and as partners ensures that new directions fit with the wider development goals. Continuing Māori provider development and Māori workforce development allows health initiatives to contribute to whānau, hapū , iwi and Māori community initiatives. These aims are in the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000.

The Government has also supported moves to strengthen the capability of Māori communities to develop initiatives that mēt their needs across the social, cultural and economic sectors. These initiatives will begin to drive changes for the health and disability sector.
