Our research approach

All research undertaken by National Hauora Coalition and in collaboration with National Hauora Coalition must undergo a rigorous internal review process. This ensures high quality, ethical, equitable, transformative outcomes for whānau.

Kaupapa Māori informed health research

Kaupapa Māori theory informs the basis of NHC health research. Our research is led by Māori or partnered with Māori and creates benefits to Māori health and wellbeing. Our moemoeā (vision) mana whānau, whānau ora and a strong commitment to te Tiriti o Waitangi are foundational to our research kaupapa.
