Auckland University of Technology academics are slating their institution’s use of the words “tika”, “pono” and “aroha” in its statement of values.
Associate Professor Georgina Stewart, the co-author of a new paper on Māori values at the university, says AUT would like its adoption of those words to be seen as evidence of cultural competence and embrace of te reo and tikanga Māori.
But she says some Māori staff are uneasy with the way the university is treating ancient indigenous ethical values which are integral to Māori culture.
