He Korowai Oranga - Key Thread: Building on the gains

Building on the gains
He Korowai Oranga builds on the considerable gains already made in Māori health.

Past policies have established a base for gains in Māori and whā nau ora outcomes, service uptake and Māori participation throughout the health and disability sector. Major gains in Māori provider and workforce development have strengthened Māori infrastructure and leadership.

Māori Development Organisations (MDOs) have, for example, emerged alongside Māori co-funding organisations (MAPOs) and Māori provider and professional organisations, to play a critical role in the effective delivery of health and disability services for Māori.

The Ministry of Health, DHBs, and other health and disability agencies have a responsibility to maintain these gains and to build on them.
