摘要
新西兰的环境政策和立法承认Māori土著原则和价值观,并突出了Te Mana o Te Wai(水本身的权威)。然而,就参与和支持Māori价值的具体分配机制而言,目前的政策、立法和实践不足以使Māori在取水和溪流流量和水位方面的权利和利益得以实现。我们认为,需要创造一个政策和实施空间,以确保土著Māori在淡水治理、规划和管理方面的参与和成果。这个空间应该提供一种综合的、预防性的、双文化的“第一原则”方法,确保Māori符合《怀唐伊提里提》/《怀唐伊条约》(1840)的权利和利益得以实现,包括mātauranga Māori(通过Māori世界观获得的知识)、tikanga (Māori习俗和爱)和kaitiakitanga(监护)的行使。我们概述了一个潜在的水资源分配框架,即Ngā Puna Aroha,它可以为国家水资源政策的执行者提供方向、信心和确定性。这种方法需要得到更广泛的双文化政策的支持,我们提出了一种涵盖所有自然“资源”管理的总体哲学,为每一种特定“资源”或包括淡水在内的Taonga(宝藏)的管理提供一种korowai(斗篷)。这种类型的双文化建议可以为淡水和更广泛的自然“资源”管理决策、监管框架以及国家和国际实施提供信息。
Ngā Puna Aroha: towards an indigenous-centred freshwater allocation framework for Aotearoa New Zealand
ABSTRACT Aotearoa New Zealand’s environmental policy and legislation recognises Māori Indigenous principles and values, and gives prominence to Te Mana o te Wai (the authority of water itself). However, current policy, legislation, and practice are inadequate for enabling Māori rights and interests in water takes and instream flows and levels, in terms of both involvement and specific allocation mechanisms supporting Māori values. We argue that a policy and implementation space needs to be created that ensures indigenous Māori engagement and outcomes in freshwater governance, planning, and management. This space should provide for an integrated, precautionary, and bicultural ‘First Principles’ approach, ensuring that Māori rights and interests consistent with Te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi (1840) are enabled, including the exercise of mātauranga Māori (knowledge informed by Māori worldviews), tikanga (Māori customs and lore), and kaitiakitanga (guardianship). We outline a potential water allocation framework, Ngā Puna Aroha, that could provide direction and give confidence and certainty to the implementers of national water policy. Such an approach would need to be supported by a broader bicultural policy and we suggest an overarching philosophy Ngā Taonga Tuku Iho, which would encompass all natural ‘resource’ management, providing a korowai (cloak) for the management of each particular ‘resource’ or taonga (treasure) including freshwater. This type of bicultural proposal could inform freshwater and wider natural ‘resource’ management policymaking, regulatory frameworks, and implementation nationally and internationally.
期刊介绍:
The Australasian Journal of Water Resources ( AJWR) is a multi-disciplinary regional journal dedicated to scholarship, professional practice and discussion on water resources planning, management and policy. Its primary geographic focus is on Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Papers from outside this region will also be welcomed if they contribute to an understanding of water resources issues in the region. Such contributions could be due to innovations applicable to the Australasian water community, or where clear linkages between studies in other parts of the world are linked to important issues or water planning, management, development and policy challenges in Australasia. These could include papers on global issues where Australasian impacts are clearly identified.
