The Asia Pacific Hospice and Palliative Care Network (APHN) is inviting registrations for their webinar, ‘Weaving indigenious ways of knowing into Paediatric Palliative Care’, slated for Tuesday, 6th August, 2024, between 10:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. (IST).
The webinar will be presented by Dr Tess Moeke-Maxwell (Senior Research Fellow and Co-Director to Arai Palliative Care and End of Life Research Group at the School of Nursing, University of Auckland, New Zealand) and Dr Gemma Aburn (Nurse Specialist in Children’s Palliative care, Starship Child Health in Auckland, New Zealand).
This presentation will explore how integrating indigenous ways of knowing can ensure cultural competence and enhance clinical care delivery for children and their whānau. Māori are tangata whenua (people of the land) and the indigenous population in Aotearoa New Zealand. We will discuss how we have woven a Te Āo Māori (Māori worldview) and tikanga (cultural customs) into the provision of paediatric palliative care in Aotearoa.
The free to attend webinar is being organised by the Paediatric Palliative Care Special Interest Group and is being hosted by the APHN.
