Te Awatea Review, 2012, 10(1&2): 3-7
"Gender violence is a global human rights and public health issue that affects women and children across the developing and developed world. The most common rationale given
for the denial of human rights to women is the preservation of family and culture. This paper examines the situation of both Native Americans and Maori who today have the highest rates of sexual and domestic violence in their respective countries.
Abuse, however, is not traditional within these communities" (from opening paragraphs). Culture may be an effective resource
in a bid to reduce violence against women and children.
