This workshop draws on the material in the Maori Values and
World Views Supplement to the Making Good Decisions Programme
and is designed for all types of practitioners under the RMA
including planners at all levels (both public and private
sector), decision-makers and those involved in advising
councils. It will also be relevant for applicants and
submitters.
The day will involve presentations, discussions and
exercises aimed at improving knowledge of
Maori values and world views and how to incorporate
these into resource management decision-making and
practice. This will be supported by the knowledge of
tikanga Maori from a local iwi representative/Maori
commissioner experienced in resource management. At the end of
the day participants should have developed a good understanding
of why is it important to take into account Maori values and
world views under the RMA and practical methods to integrate
these into resource management practice and decision making.
