SUMMARY:Youth Week 2018
DESCRIPTION:“Ahakoa te aha\, kei a koe te tikanga: Be who you want to be.”\n\nYou are invited to play off this theme\, perhaps by using the longer theme “Be who you want to be\, not what you want to see” or even the symposium favourite “Be who you want to be\, not what others want to see”. \nYouth Week has been celebrated in Aotearoa/New Zealand since the late 1990s. The nine-day celebration has been coordinated by Ara Taiohi since 2010 with the support of the Ministry of Youth Development and various corporate sponsors such as Health Promotion Agency\, WelTec\, Inspiring Stories Trust and Vodafone. \nCheck out local events here.

SUMMARY:Pink Shirt Day
DESCRIPTION:Pink Shirt Day is about working together to stop bullying by celebrating diversity and promoting positive social relationships.\nIt’s about creating a community where all people feel safe\, valued and respected\, regardless of age\, sex\, gender identity\, sexual orientation\, ability\, or cultural background.\n  \nOn Pink Shirt Day we ask New Zealanders to Speak up and Stand together to Stop bullying. \nCelebrated annually around the globe\, Pink Shirt Day began in Canada in 2007 when two students\, David Shepherd and Travis Price\, took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new year 10 student was harassed and threatened for wearing pink. David and Travis bought dozens of pink shirts and distributed them to their male classmates to wear the next day. The word got out online and hundreds of students showed up in pink\, some from head-to-toe\, to stand together against bullying. \nWe’ve been celebrating Pink Shirt Day in New Zealand since 2009 and the campaign grows stronger and larger every year. \nPink Shirt Day is led by the Mental Health Foundation\, with support from: The Peace Foundation\, RainbowYOUTH\, InsideOUT\, New Zealand Post Primary Teachers’ Association\, Youthline and Family Works. \nWhat does Speak up. Stand together. Stop bullying mean?\nSpeak up\nGiving voice to a problem is the first step towards addressing it. Having conversations with your friends\, family\, whānau\, children\, parents\, teachers\, students and wider communities is a great way to come up with ideas and strategies to address bullying. Speaking up is also about asking for help when you need it. This can be scary\, and sometimes the first person you ask can’t or won’t do anything to help you. Keep asking. Pink Shirt Day shows there are many people who care about supporting you. \nStand together\nBullying behaviour is influenced by the actions and values of friends\, families and whānau\, schools\, workplaces and whole communities. Real change happens when we stand together\, sending a strong message that there is no place for bullying in New Zealand. Bullying often makes people feel alone\, but Pink Shirt Day shows that many people care. Many people want to play their part in making New Zealand a safe\, welcoming and respectful place for everyone\, regardless of age\, sex\, gender identity\, sexual orientation\, ability\, or cultural background. \nStop bullying\nOn Pink Shirt Day\, look out on the sea of pink and know that together we can stop bullying. \n \n

SUMMARY:Toi Ako Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Weighing in on Weightism: Does a weight focused approach align with the Māori view of health?\nBecause of the association between body weight and many chronic and metabolic illnesses such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes\, weight and other weight or body fat-related measurements such as BMI (body mass index) or waist circumference are commonly used to screen and assess health risks. \nWeight loss is now linked with health\, happiness\, and will power\, while over-weight or obese is linked to ‘unhealthy’\, poor choices\, and a lack of will power. Our modern fascination for weight loss has led to stigma of those who are overweight or obese\, and considering Māori are among those with the highest prevalence of ‘overweight’ and ‘obesity’\, the line between ‘weight-ism’ and racism can become somewhat blurred. \nThere is a massive amount of research linking BMI\, weight\, and waist circumference\, to diabetes\, heart disease and other aspects of poor health\, so aren’t we justified in waging a ‘war on obesity’? Although this association is well established\, whether increased weight (or even fat) is actually the ‘cause’ of these lifestyle illnesses is less clear. What’s more\, many studies have shown that weight loss is extremely difficult and nearly impossible for some people\, while others have shown that healthy habits like regular physical activity can improve health even when no weight is lost. \nNevertheless\, the commercialisation of weight loss continues to drive a news feed full of before and after pictures\, and new weight loss product after new weight loss product. \nFor Māori\, who have highlighted holistic views of health relating to whenua\, whakapapa\, wairua\, hinengaro and whānau (as well as tinana)\, a weight focused approach to health or illness does not necessarily align with ‘our’ way of viewing health. Accordingly\, there has been a swell of initiatives drawing on traditional knowledge and cultural values to drive health promotion in Aotearoa. This is particularly apparent within various physical activity initiatives where the connection to whakapapa\, and traditional knowledge and values\, have become the driver for lifestyle change. \nYet\, despite these movements\, the outcome measures used to assess such initiatives almost always default to some weight-related measure\, whether weight itself or BMI. Decolonising health initiatives and the outcome measures which shape them may be necessary to achieving health equity and ensuring a ‘war on obesity’ isn’t just another justification for a ‘war’ on Māori. \nAbout the presenter\nDr Isaac Warbrick\nSenior Research Fellow @AUT University\nDr Isaac Warbrick (Ngāti Te Ata\, Te Arawa\, Ngā Puhi) is an exercise physiologist\, Senior Research Fellow and Director of Taupua Waiora Centre for Māori Health Research. His most recent publications have questioned whether ‘weight’ and ‘weight loss’ are appropriate ‘health’ measures for Māori\, suggesting that outcome measures should better reflect cultural values. \nView Here

SUMMARY:Toi Ako Wānanga
DESCRIPTION:Thinking of the Whole: An Intro to Systems Science\n\nThis one day introductory workshop aims to support and uplift the Waikato health promotion workforce by providing participants with the opportunity to gain a fundamental understanding of Māori systems science. Looking at the concepts of whakapapa and mātauranga Māori\, participants will gain valuable insights around: \n\nThe practical application of analysing a system within a community. \nGaining an understanding of systems science from a health perspective.\nExamining the kaupapa Māori planning tool\, He Pikinga Waiora\, which uses systems thinking as part of its framework and has indigenous self-determination at its core.\nLooking at a local intervention that has utilised systems thinking in its development and implementation phases.\n\nFacilitated by Erina Korohina and Zaynel Sushil\, participants will have the opportunity to learn\, share and connect around systems based thinking through a mātauranga Māori lens. \nWhat is systems science?\nSystems science comes from engineering and science methodologies and is a way of considering the whole as well as all of the parts. When thinking about nutrition and wellbeing\, Prof Boyd Swinburn considers this to mean looking at the enabling environment for nutrition improvement as well as health behaviour and biological factors. (Food Thinkers\, 2017). \nFrom this we can consider whakapapa which can be seen as a form of mapping genealogy. Dr Ihirangi Heke explains whakapapa as the organising system that arranges the various theoretical and practical concepts inherent in mātauranga Māori (Mātauranga Māori and Systems Dynamics\, 2017). \nWho is this for?\nThis training programme aims to support the Waikato health promotion kaimahi to better understand the basics of systems science\, Māori systems thinking from a whakapapa perspective and the practical application of analysing a system within a community.  \nToi Ako\nToi Ako is a part of Toi Tangata’s workforce development project. Although the medium and topics vary\, Toi Ako is specifically targeted at providing valuable and relevant vocational training opportunities for the Māori public health\, physical activity and nutrition sector.  \nFor more information please contact Erina Korohina: erina@toitangata.co.nz or 022 326 5602

SUMMARY:Health Star Rating Stakeholder Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Health Star Rating (HSR) Advisory Committee – the group responsible for overseeing the voluntary implementation of the HSR system – is reappraising the form of the food (‘as prepared’) rules in The Guide for Industry to the HSR Calculator. The ‘as prepared’ provision has been raised by public health and consumer groups as a misleading ruling that needs to be addressed. \nFollowing the public submission process run in May/June 2017\, three stakeholder workshops will be held in Sydney\, New Zealand and Melbourne from late September to mid October 2017. The purpose of the workshops is to consider the pros and cons of potential options to address the ‘as prepared’ issue in the context of the objectives and principles of the HSR system. A discussion paper outlining the options that were raised through the public submission process will be considered at the workshops and will be made available on the HSR website prior to the Sydney workshop.
