While a range of positions fall in to this category the synthesis is concerned with roles that are directly linked to the Enhancing Tamariki and Whānau Participation in Decision Making programme of work in the care and protection and youth justice systems (inclusive of care). Two roles in particular have informed this synthesis with supporting evidence from an Iwi initiative. These roles are the Kairaranga ā-Whānau and Iwi FGC Co-ordinators. (From the presentation). The four appendices include the reports which informed this synthesis. The published reports referred to in this synthesis are also included in the NZFVC library.
