Listen "Episode 120 - Maori Health and Health Research with A Prof Bevan Erueti"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we bring you a conversation we had with A/Prof Bevan Erueti from Massey University in Aotearoa/New Zealand in late 2024. Bevan discussed health and health research from a Māori perspective. Bevan talked us through the concept of pūrākau (Māori realities and narratives) and how this guides culturally competent health care and health research in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
Bevan took us through the great effort that had gone into establishing a world-leading Māori health service in Aotearoa/New Zealand in 2022, which was then dis-established in the first half of 2024 after a change of government in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
We chatted with Bevan about his journey from teaching into academia in Aotearoa/New Zealand, as well as his interest in sports providing a pathway for upward mobility for people in society.
