Anzasw CE Anzasw Voice Anne MacAulay
there might be something going on in the background that I am not aware of so forgive my ignorance. From where I am sitting There are enough dissenting voicing on this FB over the last week or two re OT that I believe it warrants a concerted campaign that confronts the Minister and OT management that things must change. I am happy to be a part of a campaign to help in any way that is deemed fit. I’ll even lick the envelopes, write the letter, do the printing, minute the meetings.... ... See MoreSee Less

Ka mihi atu ki a koutou katoa e nga mema o ANZASW.
This afternoon I read Issue 51 of the ANZASW Noticeboard Kete received in today’s email.
I acknowledge the Association updates and information presented in the Noticeboard. It is a valuable resource for members, and non-members, alike.
I am posting to say that I had a visceral response to the Panui re keeping the date for the September AGM and the invited Guest Speaker who is to korero at the AGM on Ethics in Social Work. I choose to articulate that response here.
1. Why do we need an overseas person’s perspective on ethics? With all that has been occurring within Aotearoa, both within Oranga Tamariki and the many challenges facing all social workers and their relationships with whanau, hapu and Iwi Maori, why can we not address the ethical dilemmas they are confronting here with someone who understands us and our context?
2. Why is there an assumption that only academics can address these issues? Where is the practitioner voice? the voices of the practitioners who confront ethical dilemmas daily?
3. Why can we not hear about tikanga vs ethics (for example) in an Aotearoa context? To confirm the ethical practice of our indigenous practitioners? or our Maori whanau?
4. As an Association that is presenting a motion to support the IFSW’s Policy on Indigenous Peoples at the General Meeting next week, why can an indigenous view of ethics not be explored?
I am increasingly frustrated to be presented with the notion that overseas academics are the ones we must give reverence to, whose knowledge is preeminent, and are of more importance than our own people. As an ANZASW Life Member, I am incredibly disappointed to see that we continue to revert to overseas ‘expertise’, and ignore the extensive, relevant knowledge within our own country to inform us about practising ethics in challenging times.
This is my personal feedback only and a response to what I see as a narrow view of ‘Guest Speakers’, with no disrespect to the individual concerned. It’s a matter of principle and questioning the Association’s honouring of the specific Maori values, it promotes.
Ma te Atua koutou, e tiaki, e manaaki, mo ake tonu atu.
