Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content
Māori resource management and planning has been practiced by whānau and hapū according to tikanga for centuries. Central to Māori resource management is the obligation to protect the mauri of everything in the environment. This paper extends student understandings of kaitiakitanga and examines the challenges and opportunities for whanau, hapū and iwi practicing resource management in a contemporary context. It provides an opportunity for students to broaden their knowledge of engagement with Māori communities and to critically analyse policies and plans developed by local and territorial authorities under the Resource Management Act and related legislation. Students are also provided with examples of iwi and hapū driven resource management through iwi management plans, guest lectures and a field visit.

Workload

Edit Workload Content

This paper is held in the A Semester. It has four contact hours weekly and one day long field trip. Students are expected to attend all sessions and complete the required readings. If we consider that the ‘normal’ annual load for a BSocSc, BTour or BA is seven papers we can then calculate that on the basis of a 16 week semester (including recess and study periods) the student should spend around 10 hours a week on average working on the paper. This includes attending classes, connecting to Moodle and completing assessed work and readings.
