“…A strength of the Tangata Hourua Framework is that it allows research of Māori and Pacific people together (Curtis, 2016; Harwood et al, 2018; Naepi, 2015), which is especially important for people who identify as Māori and Pacific multi-ethnic identities, who may experience a sense of not belonging (Agee & Culbertson, 2013; Berking et al, 2007; Keddell, 2014). Another strength is that it is simple or free of clutter, allowing core Māori and Pacific values to be clearly represented, so as to allow those who identify as Māori or Pacific to clearly see themselves reflected in the framework, the research, and the outcomes (Anae, 2001; Grimes et al, 2015; Royal, 2005).…”

Despite a growing amount of research with Māori and Pacific people in Aotearoa New Zealand, frameworks that support robust research methodologies with these peoples are limited. This is particularly so for research involving both Māori and Pacific people, which acknowledges the connections between the two and the uniqueness of all Pacific people. Tangata Hourua (Strength in Combining) is a research framework developed in response to this gap, drawing from Kaupapa Māori (Māori principles) and Pacific methodologies, that seeks to uphold the rights of Māori as Indigenous people of Aotearoa, whilst giving voice to Pacific peoples living here with shared or connected whakapapa (family connections). This article describes the framework’s origins, its relationship to Kaupapa Māori and Pacific research methodologies, key principles in its application, and its strengths and limitations. The framework has the potential to be utilised in research that positively contributes to both Māori and Pacific knowledge and well-being.
