Senior Lecturer

School of Health Sciences

Angelique Reweti (Ng膩puhi) As a Senior Lecturer in the School of Health Sciences, my primary focus is on teaching and researching in the field of Public Health and Hauora M膩ori. My work is driven by the kaupapa of empowering communities to improve their health and wellbeing, with a particular emphasis on the role of wh膩nau (extended family) in supporting community health. I have the privilege of working with a diverse range of students, from first-year undergraduates to postgraduates working towards Masters and PhDs and the opportunity to work on some exciting research projects.

Research Expertise

Research Interests

My research explores the impact of wh膩nau and community-based initiatives on the health and wellbeing of M膩ori. This is important because we often hear about M膩ori health deficits, which is disempowering for whanau and their communities, and has proven to be an ineffective way to create the change that is needed. My work aims to benefit wh膩nau by increasing awareness about the benefits of wh膩nau-based initiatives for M膩ori health and wellbeing, influencing policy and practice to support wh膩nau health and wellbeing, and emphasizing the importance of culturally appropriate interventions.

Project Title: W膩hi K艒rero: "I felt too whakam膩 to go to the doctor鈥︹

This research will examine barriers to healthcare to improve health service outcomes and reduce inequities.W膩hi K艒rero is our innovative online research platform, where we invite wh膩nau to respond to story prompts. For this project, the W膩hi K艒rero prompt will be, 鈥淚 felt too whakam膩 (embarrassed, ashamed) to go to the doctor鈥︹ We will explicitly invite stories of missed care. Our project will radically change the knowledge base by engaging with those who do not access services. It may be challenging to accept that existing research and service surveillance do not capture the experiences of those who do not seek care. Unlike conventional service reviews, we will deliberately seek the voices of people who did not access care. Our project will transform this space by inviting people to anonymously share their stories of when care was not even sought, disrupting existing understandings of unmet need.
