He Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Kahu ki Whangaroa ahau,
He raukura o te kōhanga reo, kura a-iwi hoki,
I am also a Ngāi Tahu Research Centre and Fulbright NZ Science and Innovation Alumni,
Ko Ani Kainamu tōku ingoa.
I am one of the Kaihautū (Māori Research Impact Leaders) and a transdisciplinary researcher within the Indigenous Innovation and Partnership team at the Bioeconomy Science Institute. My research has largely focused on waterways-to-coastal systems, especially working at the interface of mātauranga and science. My work is also increasingly creating methodologies that improve catchment management, māra kai and mahinga kai - including bioindicators, ecotoxicity, fishery population data, and working between hapū and iwi and local government agencies to improve the implementation of Te Tiriti approaches from land-to-sea.

Project lead: Dr Ani Kainamu Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Kahu ki Whangaroa Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research
Across Te Tai-o-Araiteuru, mana whenua must dispute the controversial issue of ‘kina barrens’; a biased view that is used to increase commercial kina quota.
Although mana whenua have intimate knowledge of their rohe moana, the current decision-making process priviledges Western science. There is little known scientific information about the stock or the impacts of fishing on the kina population within this coastline; except a questionable quota-owner led survey in Moeraki.
Ecosystem Based Management (EBM) requires Te Tiriti partnership by supporting multiple knowledge in decision-making. We aim to contribute to existing partnerships and ensure robust evidence. Utilising multiple-methods this research project draws on mātauranga of kina and associated systems as taonga.
