This narrative, while shifting, continues to frame the priorities and delivery of how biosecurity is implemented in Aotearoa|New Zealand and elsewhere. In this article, we explore the narrative position of four artistic works commissioned in response to the pathogens *Phytophthora agathidicida *(kauri dieback) and *Austropuccinia psidii *(myrtle rust). While much is still unknown about these pathogens, they threaten the unique species of the indigenous forest(s) of Aotearoa|New Zealand. The commissioning research team Toi Taiao Whakatairanga sought to ‘widen public awareness’ about the two pathogens. In response, nine commissioned artists developed an alternative narrative to the conventional science-based approach to both the framing of disease and biosecurity efforts focused on eradication. We use collaborative narrative analysis with four of the nine projects to describe the practices that have produced the alternative framings in the artworks. We draw on the notion of the ‘contact zone’ to explore how these narratives as art provide a ‘truth buffer’ free from expectations for ‘facts’ that, in process, open possibilities for different kinds of knowledges and action. We suggest that the artists’ work tends to explore the wider systemic context of biosecurity rather than the pathogen-specific perspective. We postulate that alternative narratives might alter the approach to governance, management, and care relations for te taiao (the natural environment).\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r art; narrative; forest; disease; biosecurity; te taiao""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-20T20:50:47.371340"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-20T20:50:47.371340"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.3 PAPER: Disease Narratives and Artistic Alternatives" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Te Māra Tautāne###\r \r **February 2023**\r \r Te Māra Tautāne is a collaborative research project between hapū members of Te Māhurehure in the Rūātoki Valley, and researchers at the Centre for Indigenous Psychologies at Massey University and the University of Auckland - all based in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Aotearoa-New Zealand is not exempt from this, with extreme weather events, ecosystem pressures and disconnection from place all contributing to the low awareness and optimism in children regarding environmental issues. In addition, children’s agency in relation to the environment is still narrowly perceived, meaning their participation is often overlooked or excluded. It has long been recommended that opportunities to participate in environmental education must increase to address these issues. Environmental education inherently interweaves multiple knowledges, aiming to equip students with the skills and knowledge required to engage in pro-environmental behaviours actively. With growing evidence that artistic inquiry provides in-depth pathways to build awareness, knowledge and understanding of the world around us, there is an opportunity to explore how arts education might be woven into environmental education. This amalgamation can support children to be seen as active participants in the world whose unique views and experiences are integral in understanding and working with environments, local and global. This research investigates the role of drama and the arts in environmental education and their potential to support child agency. This thesis presents case study examples from the three schools on Aotea Great Barrier Island, collected through a co-designed participatory action research project, Toitū te Ngahere: Art in Schools for Forest Health, throughout 2023. Through child-led art projects, the students and teachers from Te Kura o Okiwi, Kaitoke School and Mulberry Grove engaged in an in-depth inquiry into ngahere ora (forest health), focusing on place-based learning. My core contribution was in the inclusion of drama to the arts-based practice used in the TTN project. Engagement with the schools assisted in creating narratives of learning that helped analyse observational data and focus groups with the students. This analysis revealed that students' and teachers' engagement with drama throughout Toitū te Ngahere positively influenced participation in environmental education and built embodied awareness of place and related issues. Broader learnings arose about the benefits of varied participation in artistic inquiry and the enhanced potential of drama for both student and teacher engagement and learning when expanded into/interwoven with other media.

Accordingly, Mauri Hono: A Mauri Sensory Methodology provides a foundation to understanding knowledge by tuning into our senses and using mauri states to help elicit meaning about ourselves and our relationships with natural environments when immersed in those environments. In this study, four key phases of the methodology are detailed; Rongo, Mōhio, Mārama and Mātau and applied to a case study which sought to understand how Māori draw meaning from their experience of being immersed in a natural environment. Ten participants undertook a hīkoi (walk) within a national forest park of regenerating, native, bush. Findings revealed the importance of tuning into one’s senses and having the time and space to interpret different experiences. Furthermore, Mauri Hono, as a Māori methodology is predicated on the belief that experiential knowledge aids in providing a more complete understanding of phenomena than theoretical knowledge alone.

While the interface between mātauranga Māori and mainstream science is still problematic, we argue that traditional Māori frameworks, ethics, and principles that capture local interests, perspectives, realities, and aspirations of Māori are mandatory to articulate modern solutions to taonga species and biosecurity issues. A mātauranga Māori approach draws upon physical, spiritual, and metaphysical values, providing a unique knowledge base in which to improve environmental management, including protection of biological heritage. By employing a pūrākau (storying) method that endorses personal lived realities as a means of knowledge transfer, we were able to elicit the meaning and value our participants give to te taiao (the environment), ngahere (forests) and taonga (heritage) species.

Researchers, iwi, public sector staff and community members are now working across projects and locations to build an understanding of these two plant pathogens and to develop protections for the trees they target. This paper combines interview material from two projects within Ngā Rakau Taketake’s Postcolonial Biosecurity Possibilities remit to investigate the factors that enable and constrain plant pathogen research and practice. Actors in this space discuss the difficulty of working around gaps in basic research, a fragmented and competitive research sector, and expectations of a technological fix for a complex pathogen and its varied ecological relations. We argue that these accounts illustrate the ongoing effects of Aotearoa’s neoliberal turn, which continues to shape knowledge production and, in turn, what it is to be a researcher in Aotearoa. While the effects of these reforms have been well documented in relation to higher education and other spheres, their impact on the sciences has received less scrutiny. Foregrounding the views of those involved in kauri dieback and myrtle rust highlights the everyday manifestations and material environmental consequences of a pervasively neoliberalised research landscape.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r neoliberalism; techno-solutionism; kauri dieback; myrtle rust; knowledge production; relational values; Aotearoa New Zealand""" ; dct:issued "2024-02-16T03:58:16.301682"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-02-16T03:58:16.301682"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.4 PAPER: Neoliberal Knowledge Production" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Kauri K9s###\r \r **August 2022**\r \r **Ng WQ. 2022.

For too long, models of the knowledge of scientists and publics have set people like rangers in an inbetweener position, seeing them as good at communicating, translating or negotiating from one side to the other, but not as making knowledge that is powerful in its own right. In this paper we argue that focus groups with park rangers across regional and conservation parks in Aotearoa/New Zealand reveal the complexity and multiplicity of rangers’ knowledge-making that shows the science-public model as incomplete. We argue further that the model is flawed for its focus on the making and holding of knowledge and not also on how it is enacted. Rangers, we argue, are responsible every day for making knowledgeable decisions for the health and well-being of parks and people. Making good decisions, though, requires not just knowledge but also care. An understanding of the many ways rangers know and enact their knowledge is important for biosecurity practice, especially in models of adaptive governance.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r Biosecurity;\r Kauri dieback;\r Rangers;\r Expertise;\r Care;\r Adaptive governance""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-21T20:43:28.908042"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-21T20:43:28.908042"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.3 PAPER: Park Rangers and Science" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Toitū te Ngahere###\r \r **March 2024**\r \r Mobilising for Action’s Toitū te Ngahere (TTN) project partnered with five primary schools, in Auckland and on Aotea Great Barrier Island, to create children’s art projects to enhance both the children’s awareness of ngahere ora (forest wellbeing) and their own connections to the forest.

Using in-place methods and in-depth interviews with these high-risk users of all types – from pig hunters to mountain bikers, dog walkers to runners, this study focuses on their use of Kauri forests for recreation, sport and other aspects of daily life and invites their reflections on how they might develop biosecurity and stewardship for their ‘community.’ As such, the study opens biosecurity management to the messiness and value-laden relationships and affects between users and Kauri forests. The themes of deep connection and loss emerged, challenging the stereotype of public users as facilitators of forest disturbance and wilful inattention. The forest users were not a homogeneous group, but they shared many commonalities. We argue that it is not necessary to overemphasise the impact of user differences from those of scientists and managers and that sometimes affective relationships to the forest are more significant than cultural factors in shaping recreational experiences and biosecurity responses.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r biosecurity; recreation; kauri dieback; co-management; high-risk user""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-20T21:40:33.450274"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-20T21:40:33.450274"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.3 PAPER: What We Do in Kauri Forests " ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Mobilising for Action ###\r \r **March 2024**\r \r Mobilising for Action researched the human dimension of ngahere/forest health in Aotearoa New Zealand and more specifically the people and communities affected by, or at risk of being affected by kauri dieback and myrtle rust.\r \r Over four years, 12 project teams worked to:\r \r - understand the meaning people attach to te taiao (the environment), ngahere (forest), and taonga (treasured) species;\r \r - explore people's connection, and how this can be fostered and supported to empower them to make a difference now and in the future so te taiao, ngahere, and taonga species flourish.""" ; dct:format "PDF" ; dct:issued "2024-05-23T23:17:10.945597"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-23T23:17:10.945597"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "BRIEF: Mobilising for Action " ; dcat:accessURL ; dcat:byteSize 919693.0 ; dcat:mediaType "application/pdf" . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Protecting New Zealand's Kauri Through Good Practice: Dog Walkers###\r \r **June 2022**\r \r **Ng WQ. 2022.

However, the conceptual apparatus of biosecurity does not make the relations and overlaps between people, knowledges or values visible in practice. This is particularly so for Indigenous Māori knowledge and ontologies, which are not yet fully integrated into this field. This paper has two aims. The first is to understand how the fragmentation of the biosecurity system concerning plant pathogens is reproducing colonial relations, while shaping biosecurity practices in new ways. The second is to use postcoloniality theory as an analytic tool to understand the role that local and Indigenous knowledge and ontologies play in the biosecurity system more globally. This lens is specifically turned on the social scientific understandings of biosecurity and used to analyse the relationships of others involved in the generation and use of biosecurity science for the protection of trees in Aotearoa|New Zealand and Cymru|Wales, analysing through the lens of social science, our interviews, and focus groups with them. Two places and ways of understanding postcoloniality are deliberately evoked so that postcolonial relations become the dominant lens for understanding how society and the environment have become dis/entangled in the biosecurity system in various ways. Some consistent clusters of biosecurity fragmentation can be identified along with the emergence of specific social and environmental relations that underpin shared aspects of care with/for trees and ecosystem conservation. This result demonstrates the impact that fragmentation could have on building a relational structure and ethics of biosecurity, linking communities, geographies, policies and values. Our conclusions echo the range of questions and relations at stake resulting from this fragmentation of biosecurity and show the role(s) that social scientists and Pākehā scientists can have in opening spaces for new postcolonial biosecurity practices to emerge.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r postcolonial science; biosecurity epistemology; plant pathogens; Aotearoa|New Zealand; Cymru|Wales; social science""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-20T21:42:45.112633"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-20T21:42:45.112633"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.4 PAPER: Healing Fragmentation of Forest Biosecurity Networks" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Applying behavioural science principles to prevent the spread of kauri dieback###\r \r **April 2023**\r \r **Benson H. 2023.

Kauri Dieback Prevention: Relational Values of Knowledge Producers. Unpublished Master of Science thesis, Victoria University of Wellington, Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington. 90 p.**\r \r **ABSTRACT**\r \r Researchers and knowledge producers play a key role in kauri dieback knowledge production. Whilst their scientific discoveries are well documented in literature, their personal experiences and stories of working on kauri dieback are not. Yet these experiences and stories give key insights into the factors that shape kauri dieback knowledge production, and provide an understanding of how the current kauri dieback research landscape is operating. This research thesis therefore aims to understand kauri dieback researchers through the lens of relational values, a subset of environmental values. Relational values emerge from the relationships between people and the natural environment and are useful for unpacking the relationship between researchers and kauri trees. Using semi-structured interview data from six kauri dieback knowledge producers this research finds that relational values shape and motivate kauri dieback research. Relational values are therefore inherent in science practices, yet there are forces within the current research landscape that stymie the ability for these values to manifest. This research finds that funding structures, fragmentation in the research space and the urgency of kauri dieback against Aotearoa’s postcolonial backdrop push-back on researcher’s ability to realise their values. In turn this results in researchers feeling burnt-out and frustrated. This research therefore argues the importance of relational values in future considerations of the kauri dieback research landscape to alleviate current tensions and challenges that researchers face in the space.""" ; dct:issued "2024-08-28T04:30:17.827001"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-28T04:30:17.827001"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.4 THESIS: Relational Values of Knowledge Producers" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Te Maara Tautāne###\r \r **February 2023**\r \r Learn more out about the Māra Tautāne through this e-book that was created for the unveiling ceremony.\r \r Also see: https://www.mobilisingforaction.nz/research-ra1-2/#resources\r \r """ ; dct:format "PDF" ; dct:issued "2024-08-27T04:53:47.051401"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-27T04:53:47.051401"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.2 BOOKLET: Te Maara Tautāne" ; dcat:accessURL ; dcat:byteSize 1371141.0 ; dcat:mediaType "application/pdf" . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Mobilising for Action: Introduction to the Special Issue###\r \r ###Harvey M, McEntee M. 2023.

Although New Zealanders use rongoā to tend to health and well-being, it extends beyond this as a way of living in balance and connection to the world. Research about rongoā Māori has increased in recent years. However, the perspectives and voices of those who utilise rongoā Māori practices are currently limited in the literature. In addition, there is a lack of research into how New Zealanders utilise rongoā Māori practices in their everyday lives and the contribution of rongoā engagement to well-being. The current study explored the relationship between rongoā Māori engagement and dimensions of well-being as encompassed by Te Whare Tapa Whā. Two hundred and seventy-four participants took part in an online questionnaire that measured physical, psychological, social, and spiritual well-being and included open-ended questions for participants to provide their perspectives. The findings indicate that rongoā Māori engagement contributes to improved hauora, with significant findings for psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. In particular, the relationship between rongoā Māori engagement and spiritual well-being was prominent and highly significant. This study also illustrated the significance that rongoā Māori has to the lives of New Zealanders beyond these aspects of well-being, contributing to enhanced connections to the natural world and cultural identity. These findings contribute to the sparse literature on rongoā Māori engagement and well-being and promote a holistic preventative approach to health and well-being in Aotearoa New Zealand.""" ; dct:issued "2024-08-26T22:24:16.193295"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-26T22:24:16.193295"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.1 THESIS: He Kākano Ahau" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Mobilising for Action 2022\r \r **June 2022**\r \r **Akariro Films. 2022.

Contemporary Māori are situated within a particular sociopolitical history, which, among other systemic changes, has seen continued environmental degradation over time. Accordingly, Māori identity and engagement with and connection to the wider ecosystem have also undergone metamorphosis. Although literature suggests that the natural environment continues to have intrinsic value for many Māori, the impact of environmental degradation on traditional practices, well-being, and identity has remained largely unexplored in some academic disciplines, including Western psychology. In this study, an online questionnaire assessing observed environmental changes, and the relationship between Māori identity, environmental identity, and environmental distress, was administered to 314 Māori. Nearly three-quarters of participants reported witnessing negative changes to local ecology over time, and a decreased ability to engage in traditional environmental practices. Findings revealed a strong association between Māori identity and enhanced sense of environmental connection. Personal connectedness to the environment had the greatest influence on feelings of environmental distress.

This work is urgent and challenging in the context of mobile tree pathogens, investment in climate mitigation through tree planting and greater legal recognition of Indigenous rights and those of trees. While a transition towards shared, collective responsibility for trees and treescapes is compelling, its conceptualisation in practice remains underdeveloped. This is particularly the case when considering tree-biosecurity relations. This paper shows the positioning work a team of social scientists undertook to enable polyvocal imagining of biosecurity possibilities, which trees so urgently need. Situated in Aotearoa | New Zealand and Cymru | Wales, this team of social scientists engaged with colonising forces (of which social science is also a part) to position research for biosecurity and with trees. Presented here are their reflections informed by literature and document reviews as well as research team discussions. Released somewhat from the constraints of displaced ways of knowing human dimensions of trees by means of connecting with Indigenous (especially Māori) scholarship, the research project became more capable of connecting other relations too, between people and nature, knowledge and action, science and society, research and management. The relational approach developed widens the potential for tree-human relations and supports the creation of biosecurity knowledge, systems and practices, not through one but multiple worldviews.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r relationality; values; trees; biosecurity; biodiversity; ethics; social; research; pathogens; positionality""" ; dct:issued "2024-02-19T00:42:33.595001"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-02-19T00:42:33.595001"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.4 PAPER: Positioning Research for Biosecurity Relations" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Relational Values of Kauri ###\r \r **June 2020**\r \r Te Au The Current - We Should Protect Kauri.

But this article proposes that these diverse knowledges interwoven together in project activities can play an important role in facilitating children’s engagement in biosecurity issues. We reflect on our collective learning in a schools-based arts project, Toitū te Ngahere: Sustainability of the Forest and the Arts, which involved a transdisciplinary team from the Creative Arts, Social and Environmental Sciences, Education and mātauranga Māori, with partners from participating schools and local artists. We examine the contribution that different knowledges offer to children’s learning about, and engagement in, forest health management, focussing, in particular, on the plant diseases kauri dieback and myrtle rust. We illustrate our approach to interweaving knowledges by describing and reflecting on three project activities. We then examine the structural and relational barriers that both undermine and promote the interweaving of knowledges for fostering children’s participation in ngahere (forest) health. We argue that to effectively engage children in forest health requires a strongly relational, place-based approach to research and engagement that fosters bottom-up collaborative processes based on care and values and interweaves diverse knowledges in creative ways. How effectively this can be achieved depends on wider dynamics, including societal tensions between colonial norms, mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge frameworks) and Kaupapa Māori (Māori customary practices); the level of engagement a school has with te ao Māori (the Māori world); aspects of curricula; and notions of time and strategies in teaching children. Our reflections from the first year of this project show that interweaving multiple knowledges into project activities can enrich children’s inquiry and lead to locally relevant action that is well suited to complex socio-environmental issues.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r arts; Aotearoa; biosecurity; children’s participation; socio-environmental issues""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-21T20:37:16.501046"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-21T20:37:16.501046"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.4 PAPER: Interweaving Multiple Knowledges" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """Poster presented at the Kaurilands Summit.

It is widely used in the environmental area, where citizens contribute to greater understanding of the natural world. Citizen involvement can range from participants simply being data collectors for science research right through to some projects seeing citizens as collaborators and co-designers with their science partners. Whatever form citizen science takes, the endeavour allows participants to directly contribute to scientific advancement while simultaneously gaining knowledge and appreciation for the research process. However, as citizen science’s roots lie in Eurocentric ideals of Western science, it raises concerns about how well citizen science programmes resonate with culturally diverse and historically marginalised communities. This thesis therefore examines how citizen science might be inclusive of, and relevant to contexts which include Māori as participants, and to contexts where citizen science investigation has particular cultural relevance such as when working with taonga species. The research explored two cases that involved communities engaging in environmental research. The first case considered the context of Kauri Rescue, a citizen science project framed through a western science lens, which sees citizens collaborating with scientists to refine a treatment solution for kauri dieback, a disease devastating kauri - a taonga species, with considerable cultural significance. The other case considered the context of a Māori community of the North Hokianga in the Far North region of Aotearoa New Zealand (Aotearoa NZ), undertaking environmental research guided by Te Ao Māori values. These two cases enabled the research to explore community engagement through two different cultural lenses. To investigate the first case, the research applied a mixed methods approach involving an online survey and semi-structured interviews, to examine participants’ motivation for engagement and experiences of a citizen science project framed by Western science. To investigate the second case in the North Hokianga, a narrative ethnographic method was utilised through wānanga to understand how Te Ao Māori values could inform the practice of citizen science when working with Māori communities. The thesis reveals the significance of recognising and accommodating the diverse motivations and value systems of participants in environmental citizen science initiatives to cultivate sustained participant engagement and ensure project longevity. This thesis further found that while place attachment and values are intrinsic in the foundation of cultural identity for Māori, they are also of vital importance to Pākehā engaged in environmental citizen science initiatives. When working in Aotearoa NZ, citizen science projects must consider how to intertwine these values into the core structure of their initiatives to ensure their enduring viability and alignment with participant communities. This exploration of people’s experiences of engaging in environmental research through different cultural contexts, has enabled the research to inform how citizen science in Aotearoa NZ could be shaped by Māori values and therefore responsive to a more diverse Aotearoa NZ. Furthermore, it contributes to wider discussions in Aotearoa NZ about decolonising science.""" ; dct:issued "2024-06-10T00:02:02.041759"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-06-10T00:02:02.041759"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.4 THESIS: Engagement Beyond Inclusion" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Clashing epistemologies and contrasting injustice: an Aotearoa/ New Zealand case###\r \r **June 2024**\r \r **McEntee M, Harvey M, Medvecky F. 2024.

Specifically, we focus on the Aotearoa New Zealand context where knowledge making has been, and still is, dominated by a western paradigm, but where there is increasing discussion on mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) as a valid and valuable form of knowing. Drawing on the experiences of a transdisciplinary research programme that sought to examine the human dimensions of biosecurity aspects of the plant pathogens kauri dieback and myrtle rust, we approach our original question using the theoretical concept of epistemic injustice and draw on our experiences as a way to highlight instances and forms of epistemic injustice in the science-society relationship. We argue that the division of epistemic labour (into fields, disciplines, etc), and the ranking and assigning of relative epistemic credibility based on this division is a fundamental part of the western knowledge ecology which creates the necessary conditions for specific and potent forms of epistemic injustice. We contrast this by discussing how other knowledge ecologies, specifically mātauranga Māori, comfortably engages with a variety of knowledge and knowers and discuss the possibilities other knowledge ecologies offer.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r Public engagement with science and technology, Science communication: theory and models; Social inclusion""" ; dct:issued "2024-06-06T22:38:54.247256"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-06-06T22:38:54.247256"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA2.3 PAPER: Clashing epistemologies and contrasting injustice" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Ko au te ngahere: Rongoā Practitioners and Kaitiaki perspectives on the value and meaning of the forest###\r \r **August 2021**\r \r **Maikuku, V., Masters-Awatere, B., Lindsay, N., & Tassell-Matamua, N.

Findings show uncertainty about the scientific knowledge of the issue, recommended actions and efficacy of proposed solutions significantly influenced PEB for both residents and visitors of forests; however, this relationship was partially mediated by trust, particularly among locals residing within 5 km of infected forest areas.

To counter this marginalisation and promote epistemic justice, we explored how the creative arts involving a child-driven environmental communication project could foster children’s sense of agency by supporting the protection of a local forest affected by a tree disease. We show that the creative arts could facilitate the children’s meaningful engagement in environmental issues in a learning environment that fostered child-centric approaches that enabled children to express their visions for sustainable futures in distinctly unique ways that were relevant to them. Furthermore, enabling the children to participate as environmental communicators re-established their relationship with their local forest and re-balanced the power structures that had led to the children’s sense of marginalisation.

Co-production of knowledge across Indigenous knowledge systems and Western scientific approaches is receiving attention both internationally and within the science system in Aotearoa New Zealand. Addressing power asymmetries as part of the co-production process is also slowly gaining recognition. Those involved in knowledge co-production initiatives must support learning about different world views, ways of knowing and accounting for the environment, while also enabling learning of the many biases and assumptions built into methodologies. This deliberation is needed, so non-Indigenous researchers can form enduring trustworthy partnerships and contribute to co-production initiatives. Presented here are insights shared by a cohort of environment research practitioners who have been deliberating on co-production occurring across knowledge systems in Aotearoa New Zealand.

This qualitative study takes a community case-study approach to investigate the barriers and enablers of pro-environmental behavior in relation to kauri dieback. Twenty-one members of the public residing in a locale heavily impacted by kauri dieback were interviewed. Several issues that may lead to noncompliance with measures to protect kauri were identified, primarily centered around themes related to system knowledge, certainty and trust. Understanding community social dynamics, as well as cultivating and maintaining public trust in scientific and resource management authorities, is an important element for generating and improving pro-environmental behaviour when uncertainty is high.\r \r **KEYWORDS**\r \r bIosecurity; kauri dieback; natural resource protection; pro-environmental behavior; social trust""" ; dct:issued "2024-05-20T21:06:12.836811"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-05-20T21:06:12.836811"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.1 PAPER: Pro-Environmental Behaviour for Kauri Dieback" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###How do Scientists Understand Myrtle Rust?###\r \r **December 2023**\r \r Conversations with six myrtle rust experts from Scion, Plant and Food and Beyond Myrtle Rust\r \r Commissioned by Centre for Indigenous Psychologies, and He Taonga Kē Te Ngahere project funded by the Ngā Rākau Taketake Theme : Mobilising for Action. """ ; dct:issued "2024-08-27T01:50:06.877481"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2024-08-27T01:50:06.877481"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "RA1.1 VIDEO: How do Scientists Understand Myrtle Rust?" ; dcat:accessURL . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description """###Mai i te pū ki te wānanga.
