"In this chapter, we report on data generated from a larger project supported by Cheryl Turner from Pakanae marae, funded by the Health Research Council of New Zealand. The project has progressed across three phases: (1) interviews with 23 key stakeholders, (2) interviews with 30 young Māori, and (3) development of a set of educational resources for Māori youth (underway) that address themes raised across each set of interviews. This chapter is based on data generated in the interviews with key stakeholders who were recruited through Jade’s and Cheryl’s networks in the Northland region of Aotearoa New Zealand."

"This pūrakau (Māori narrative) outlines three broad areas where Indigenous approaches to sexual violence prevention are undermined: (1) curtailing Māori community agency in
responding to sexual violence, (2) overlooking Māori innovators and expertise, and (3) disconnecting Māori ingenuity from originating people and place." (From the chapter). This is Chapter 2 in Sexual and reproductive justice. Record #7699
