E manawanui ana a Pūtahi Manawa ki te tuku pūtea mo te rangahau e tautoko ana i tā mātou whakatakanga ki te whakawhanake i te mana taurite mo te hauora manawa o ngai Māori, ngā iwi o Te Moana-Nui-Ā-Kiwa me ngā wāhine, mā te hiranga o te rangahau me te tika o te rongoā.
Tā mātou rangahau
Ka tukua atu he pūtea moni ia tau, ā, ka whakatau atu ngā puka no ngā kairangahau hauora manawa katoa kua tuaritia i o mātou wawata. He mea whakauruuru te rangahau whakawhiwhinga tūranga, te whakatakanga me te pūtea mana taurite o ngā āheinga pūtea moni.
Ina ka riro i te pūtea moni, ko ngā mātāpono pūtea moni e arahi nei i a mātou ko te mana pūtaiao, te mana taurite, te whakamana i Te Tiriti o Waitangi, te whakaahua pāhekoheko, te whakamāori/whakapākeha rānei, me te whakakotahi i ngā tīma rangahau.
Kei te pūtahi o tā mātou rangahau ko tā mātou Integrated Research Modules (IRMs), koira ā mātou hōtaka. Ko ngā kaupapa pāhekoheko ka whakamahia e ēnei whakatakanga. Hei tauira, ko te methodology, epidemiology, physiology and clinical science o ngāi Māori me ngā iwi o Te Moana-Nui-Ā-Kiwa, e whakamana ana i ngā kōrero e hāngai pū ana ki ngā take o te hauora manawa. Ko te nuinga o ngā kōwae kua arahi e ngai Māori, ngā iwi o Te Moana-Nui-Ā-Kiwa me ngā wāhine kairangahau me tā rātou whakaniko i te pūtahitanga o te rangahau. Inā hoki ko rātou kei te mahi ngātahi me ngā hāpori, ka urutau o mātou kairangahau i o rātou mahere rangahau i ā rātou e mahi tonu ana me ngā hāpori.
Ko Te Ara Poutama tētahi hōtaka rangahau e arahi nei e te hapori Māori hauora manawa, ā, he tūāpapa mo te whanaketanga o ngā kaupapa Māori e matatika ana mo te hauora manawa a ngai Māori. Kua whiwhi inati tēnei whakatakanga nā te Heart Foundation.
Ko tēnei kaupapa‘Business as usual’, he momo rangahau ka titiro ki ngā whakataurite o ngā hāpori kia okea te mana - neke atu i ngā whakaaro o ngā mātauranga me ngā tākuta me ko rātou anake ngā “mātanga”. E manawanui ana a Pūtahi Manawa ki te wānanga tahi me ngā hāpori ki te waihanga i ngā rongoā whai tikanga. Mā te aukati i te āputa i waenga i ngā kairangahau me ngā hāpori, ko te whāinga nui ki te karawhiu i ngā whakaaweawe pai me te whāngai i te whanaketanga.
Ka haupū moni a Pūtahi Manawa i ngā pūtea rangahau ki te tautoko i ngā kairangahau me a rātou mahi ki ngā taumata rerekē o ā rātou umanga. Ko te nuinga o ngā putea moni mo te rangahau, ka riro mā te tauwhāinga pūtea moni. Ko te tikanga kia whakarapa atu ngā rangahau katoa ki ngā mātāpono pūtea moni.
E mahi ngātahi nei ngā tīma rangahau me ngā hāpori ki te kōrero atu mo te mana taurite o ngā putanga hauora manawa. He momo āhuatanga tēnei o te Integrated Research Module. Ka whakahaerehia e ia kōwae mo te toru tau, ā, ka whakawhiwhia i te $1.5 miriona tārā o roto i te pūtea moni nā Pūtahi Manawa.
Ka whakarawea e ngā whakawhiwhinga tūranga ki te tautoko i ngā mahi o ngā kairangahau, me ngā tapaetanga o ērā mahi ki te whakawhanake i ngā putanga hauora manawa o ngā iwi o Te Moana-Nui-Ā-Kiwa, ngai Māori me ngā wāhine. Ka tuku pūtea e te whakawhiwhinga tūranga ki te ECR mo ngā tau e toru, ā, ka āpiti atu he utu ki te tautoko i ā rātou me ngā utu whakahaere rangahau.
Ka riro mā te pūtea whakatakanga ki tētahi whakatakanga rangahau motuhake ka whakahaerehia mo te rua ki te toru tau.
Ko te pūtea mana taurite o nāianei ka tāwhanatia ki ngā kaupapa whakaehu, tae rā anō ki ngā pūtea moni ki te whakakaha ake i tētahi momo rangahau kei te tuhi kē, ngā karahipi mo ngā ākonga me ngā pūtea whakaahua. Ko te tikanga o tēnei, hei whakarahi atu i te wāhanga mana taurite i ngā akomanga, ā moroki noa nei.
Ko te pūtake o ngā pūtea kiriwai o Pūtahi Manawa, ki te tautoko ake i ngā whakatakanga iti nei, nā, ko te whāinga ka whakawhiwhia ki te tāuru paerata ki te whakawhanake i ngā puka ki ngā pūtea moni nui ake.
Ko ēnei karahipi, he mea tautāwhi i ngā ākonga tohu paetahi mo te tekau wiki i te raumati, i a rātou e mutu ana i tētahi whakatakanga rangahau iti nei e hāngai ana ki te hauora manawa ki raro i ngā whakahaere tikanga o ngā kairangahau a Pūtahi Manawa. Kua wātea ki ngā ākonga Māori, ngā ākonga o Te Moana-Nui-Ā-Kiwa me ngā ākonga wāhine.
