E mihi nei mātou ki te tangata whenua - ki ngā hapū me ngā iwi Māori kua roa e noho nei hei kaitiaki i ngā whenua me ngā wai huri i Aotearoa. E whakaae nei mātou, me aro ngā pou katoa o te oranga Māori, otirā, te oranga ā-tinana, ā-hinengaro, ā-wairua, ā-whānau, ka mutu, he mea titi ēnei ki ngā hononga whai tikanga ki te ao Māori, tae pū atu ki te reo me ōna tikanga, ki te ahurea, ki ngā whenua, ki ngā whānau, ki ngā hapū, ki ngā iwi anō hoki.
We acknowledge Māori as tangata whenua who have long served as the traditional custodians of the lands and waters throughout Aotearoa. We recognise that Māori health requires a holistic approach that considers physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing, and furthermore, that these are contingent upon meaningful connection to the Māori world, in particular, to the language and customs, culture, lands, whānau, hapū and iwi.
