Lay summary
I will attend and participate in a series of research workshops which will assist me to gain a further understanding of kaupapa Maori research methodologies. I will then work under the guidance of the principal investigator and senior researcher and assist with in-depth interviewing of key informants to the ‘Impact of sexual violence on Maori project’ and subsequent collation of interview information. Furthermore, I will assist with the development of a scoping historical trauma survey, and search and review relevant literature. Participation at a research project team hui will also contribute to further experience and knowledge.
