Purpose of the Policy
The Policy for Research Consultation with Māori provides the framework for an appropriate and mandated consultation process with Māori for research. It ensures an effective and efficient mechanism for managing the consultation process while acknowledging the needs and aspirations of Ngāi Tahu for Māori development and benefit in Ngāi Tahu Vision 2025.
This process is available to University of Otago researchers only.
Please note:
- appropriate consultation is required before you begin work on research proposals
- consultation is required for all areas of research
- consultation may take time - so start well in advance of preparing your proposal
The consultation process asks researchers to submit a Research Consultation with Māori Form with information on your research proposition which is then assessed for consultation requirements. A Completed Sample Consultation Form is available to use as a guide.
The Policy for Research Consultation with Māori contains further information. You could also attend a HEDC workshop or get in touch with the Māori research consultation contact people below.
