What are the impacts today from colonization for maori in terms of social work?

Colonization has resulted in intergenerational trauma, loss of cultural identity, and socioeconomic disparities for Maori communities. Social work with Maori individuals and families requires a decolonizing approach that prioritizes cultural competence, self-determination, and empowerment to address these complex issues. Collaboration with Maori leaders and organizations is crucial in providing effective and culturally sensitive support.
