It is within this context that we finalise this report exploring possible specific and concrete accountability mechanisms for the Crown and its Tiriti obligations. This context highlights the contradiction at the heart of democratic accountability in settler colonies. That is, Crowns/States claim near-exclusive rights to revenue raising and typically use that revenue to go towards resourcing accountability mechanisms, to the limited extent that they are resourced or put in place. On the one hand, adequate resourcing is required for Indigenous self-determination that would build capacity to continue demanding accountability from the kāwanatanga. On the other hand, this cannot be achieved without holding the kāwanatanga to account concerning the resourcing of Indigenous self-determination.

While there are existing means for resourcing, these are at the whims of the market and/or the Crown. For these to move towards equity or justice, an economic base for rangatiratanga is required. The Crown is able to resource its governance through taxation, rates, levies and other means, because of its assumed sovereignty. This assumed sovereignty has been challenged by Māori, creating opportunities for exploring resourcing rangatiratanga into the future. Whether it is in pursuit of better biodiversity outcomes, or in pursuit of justice according to the articles of Te Tiriti – rangatiratanga in article 2 and equity in article 3 – all signs point to an urgent need to consider options for resourcing rangatiratanga.

For each of these streams we give an overview and evaluation based on existing research, and illustrate possibilities through select case studies. The report then offers conclusions, opportunities for future research and limitations. Future research will consider these options in more depth, as well as evaluating additional options out of the scope of this report.\r \r The broad thrust of this report is that for Māori to exercise rangatiratanga towards better biodiversity outcomes, this rangatiratanga must be resourced. While there are existing means for resourcing, these are at the whims of the market and/or the Crown. For these to move towards equity or justice, an economic base for rangatiratanga is required. The Crown is able to resource its governance through \r taxation, rates, levies and other means, because of its assumed sovereignty. This assumed sovereignty has been challenged by Māori, creating opportunities for exploring resourcing rangatiratanga into the future. Whether it is in pursuit of better biodiversity outcomes, or in pursuit of justice according to the articles of Te Tiriti – rangatiratanga in article 2 and equity in article 3 – all signs point to an urgent need to consider options for resourcing rangatiratanga. This report begins to address that need to contribute to an ongoing conversation at the intersection of conservation and constitutional transformation.\r """ ; dct:issued "2024-08-02T00:55:46.337939"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-02T00:55:46.337939"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "REPORT: Possibilities for Resourcing Rangatiratanga" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Online presentation from Crazy & Ambitious 4: The story of Me Tū ā-Uru – Together for a flourishing Aotearoa###\r \r **April 2024**\r \r Online presentation from Crazy & Ambitious 4: The story of Me Tū ā-Uru – Together for a flourishing Aotearoa, with Maria Bargh, Victoria University of Wellington""" ; dct:issued "2024-08-12T21:59:14.577226"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-12T21:59:14.577226"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "WEBINAR: C&A4 The Story of Me Tū ā-Uru" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Transitioning Environmental Governance: Tikanga Māori and a Political Ethic of Care###\r \r **December 2022**\r \r **Tapsell E. 2022. [Transitioning Environmental Governance: Tikanga Māori and a Political Ethic of Care](https://openaccess.wgtn.ac.nz/ndownloader/files/38456843). A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in Māori Studies. Victoria University of Wellington.**\r \r **ABSTRACT**\r \r This thesis outlines the important roles that tikanga and care ethics have in the governance of our environment. Current governing practices and systems in Aotearoa are deeply intertwined with colonial histories and ideologies that can devalue care, tikanga and reciprocal relationships. However, as environmental threats increase globally and locally, new ways of relating to and governing our environments are necessary (IPBES 2019; Te Mana o Te Taiao 2020). Indigenous knowledge and legal concepts are pivotal to more holistic governance of the environment and in Aotearoa, this often includes tikanga Māori. This thesis explores the need to decolonise governance systems and ideologies of care to ensure better relationships with the environment and between Te Tiriti o Waitangi partners in Aotearoa. I argue a political ethic of care is needed within environmental governance to ensure that relationships are balanced, and power, privilege and history are not ignored or maintained in the process of transitioning environmental governance into a more relational and tikanga Māori informed system. I recommend a Political Ethic of Care Toolbox to be used in environmental policy and planning by decision-makers working in environmental governance.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r environmental governance;\r tikanga;\r care ethics;\r Te Tiriti o Waitangi\r \r \r \r """ ; dct:issued "2024-08-09T02:44:26.361017"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-09T02:44:26.361017"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "THESIS: Transitioning Environmental Governance" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###A Tika Transition to a Flourishing Aotearoa: Guidance to inform a 'tika' transition###\r \r **November 2023**\r \r **Bargh M. 2023.
