HPSAANZ is excited to offer Critical Tiriti Analysis (CTA) workshop with Dr Heather Came
Sessions 1&2 Critical Tiriti Analysis (CTA) is a methodology co-created by Heather Came, Dominic O’Sullivan and Tim McCreanor. In its retrospective form it is a collective process to determine whether a policy/project/strategy is Te Tiriti compliant. In its prospective form it strengthens Te Tiriti alignment from the beginning of a project.
This workshop is designed to introduce CTA and strengthen Te Tiriti based practice. The workshop includes Te Tiriti revision on Te Tiriti and its application. The whakapapa of CTA is shared with learners and current scholarship in the area. This practical workshop fosters critical thinking and models collaboration as learners “learn by doing” a retrospective CTAs. The workshop concludes by exploring how to apply CTA on forthcoming work.
CTA is a decolonising method used by practitioners, scholars, policy makers and decision-makers. It is being used to assess proposals, for policy writing, accreditation / competency frameworks, curriculum review / development, and commissioning. It also continues to be used to monitor the Crown.
