    Research Proposal

    The stated research aims are to describe the experiences of two kaumātua and to identify
    inter-generational differences, if any, in tikanga Māori. For this assignment I propose to
    interview Aunty Reitu Robson and Aunty Ewa Cassidy.

    I have worked closely with these kaumātua for over 5 years, and have fostered a unique
    relationship with them.

    I have selected these kaumātua because of their lifelong service, dedication and
    commitment to the hapū of Ngāti Hura. Both are experienced advocates and agents for
    the welfare, wellbeing, development and rangatiratanga of the hapū. Both are highly
    respected kaumātua.

    Interview – Reitu Robson

    Aunty Reitu is a first cousin and tuakana to my mother Mātiri. Aunty was groomed from
    a young age by her mother, Rangitukia, and instructed in tikanga and whakapapa. She has
    been involved in many diverse issues within the hapū rohe for over sixty years and is
    considered to be a puna mātauranga of the hapū. Aunty is often called upon by the hapū,
    the marae and the Iwi to advise on or contribute to various take Māori such as tikanga,
    whakapapa, kawa o te marae, mōteatea, tukutuku, kōwhaiwhai and hītori. Aunty has been
    recognised for her service to Māori and is a recipient of the Queens Service Medal.

    Interview – Ewa Cassidy

    Aunty Ewa is a teina of Aunty Reitu and like her tuakana was also groomed from a
    young age by her mother, Rangitukia, but to a different end. She is a pillar of strength and
    support for the hapū and for her tuakana, Aunty Reitu. She is often called upon by her
    tuakana to attend hui in her stead. Aunty’s commitment to her tuakana is evident at all
    times. Her service to her hapū, Iwi and local community are well-known for which she is
    widely respected and held in high regard by her whānau, hapū, marae and local
    community. Despite the shared upbringing and common background aunty’s life
    experiences and world view are uniquely her own.
    Research Topics

    I am interested in learning more about themselves, their life experiences and world view..
    During the course of the interview I will be exploring;

    Their upbringing and family environment that sheltered and nurtured them,
    The kai and associated tikanga that gave them sustenance,
    Knowledge transmission methods and agents,
    The influence, if any, the Hāhi may have had on their lives,
    The differences in tikanaga, if any, in te way things were done then and the way they are
    done now,
    What part in their lives, if any, education institutes like Te Wānanga o Raukawa may
    have played in their lives

    Conclusion

    This exercise represents an incredible opportunity to come to know my kaumātua in a


    more intimate way resulting in a greater appreciation and respect for my kaumātua, and a
    deeper understanding of their life experiences and world view.
