Matauranga Maori

https://www.facebook.com/SunliveBOP/photos_stream

“It is my belief that Matauranga Maori is a cultural system of knowledge about

everything that is important in the lives of the people”

(Mead, 2012, p. 13). (http://www-rdca-cms.nzqa.govt.nz/assets/Maori/ConversationsMMv6AW-web.pdf )

“whakapapa and matauranga Maori are inextricably linked. In this regard, no

discussion on matauranga Maori is complete without discussing the

relationship between whakapapa and matauranga Maori”

(Royal as cited in Edwards, 2011, p.48) (http://www-rdca-cms.nzqa.govt.nz/assets/Maori/ConversationsMMv6AW-web.pdf )

“Whakapapa is the genealogical descent of all living things from the Gods to present time.

The meaning of whakapapa is ‘to lay one thing upon another’, for example, to lay one

generation upon another. Everything has a whakapapa: birds, fish, animals, trees, and

every other living thing…..”

(Barlow, 1991, p. 173)

“Whakapapa to all living things helped people te ira-tangata understand their

relationship with the world”

(Royal, 2010, p. 8).

“…whakapapa embodies a comprehensive conceptual

framework that enables us to make sense of our world”

(Mikaere, 2001, p. 285-286)

“Each tribe has their own versions of knowledge that define the application of the values and principles in matauranga maori. An in-depth

study of matauranga maori produces matauranga-a-iwi”

(Doherty, 2009, p. 74).
