@tinangata starts the kōrero, speaking on plastic pollution, #indigenousrights and the #treaty
“Good science considers context”
“Good science considers context”
In Aotearoa - a big blue land - we have access to 3000+ years of marine knowledge
Yet our ability to grow a science sector in a Te Tiriti/Treaty context is a challenge
Vision Mātauranga is shifting how we carry out good science in Aotearoa
@UN4Indigenous have recommended that indigenous peoples are included fully meaningful and effective in the decision-making processes for tackling marine litter and pollution. For doing good science, indigenous knowledge, practices and innovations must be centred
Science outside the context of social justice has played a role in the justification of environmental degradation eg fossil fuel pipelines. Our science must never be used to visit injustice on anyone. Science and human rights gaps still exist today
Our science must be for good.
What do we have to do right now to be responsive to social justice in marine science in Aotearoa? A Te Tiriti centred science approach? #NZMSS2021

One example happening today is Aotearoa Impacts & Mitigation of Microplastics. They produced a report that explores best practice led by Te Tiriti and WAI262 and they champion these practices at an international level 
Growing relationships with integrity is critical to do good science in Aotearoa. Kia ora @tinangata #NZMSS2021
