Lay summary
This project focuses on building a community of intergenerational Samoan women who have experienced a miscarriage and are living in Dunedin and other areas in the Otago region which have a growing Samoan population, such as Oamaru and Balclutha. Building relationships with these women using Samoan cultural practices and approaches is the initial and key step to this project before capturing their experiences through engagement known as 'talanoaga'. Gathering these women's experiences and stories aims to highlight what level of support and care is available and whether they meet the needs of Samoan women through a cultural lens.
