Who has the power? Who is making the decisions? “ Healthy Families Team member
- 17. Cultural opportunity Example: A whānau-centric approach – Co-Design Mamas • Design sessions around whānau needs (tamariki friendly, not just stakeholder friendly) • Trust and relationship building outside “project” • Whānau decide how they participate, when and how, and have decision-making power • Build design capability of whānau to lead the co-design process “designing the process around whānau, not fitting whānau into bits of the process. Angie TSI
- 19. A focus on systems change Looks like: • Working at system scale – not just human scale • Understand the system as a whole, and the influence between parts • Disrupt parts of, or the whole of system • Beyond ‘projects’

Tammy Potini, Healthy Families TAKE ACTION PLAN TAKE TIME TO REFLECT LEARNING Some of the cultural and symbolic meanings attached to turtles include: Peace, Calm, Graceful, Serenity, Spirtual, Long life, Voyager, Hard-shell, Culture, Swimmer 1. Frame and Engage (Shell) A turtle, holding the burden of the world on its back but until it sticks its head out to initiate the engagement process to move forward the progress is very slow. A plan of attack is paramount to survive. Identify initial start points and engage people (with people) Words we came up with... Tsunami of change Look and Listen Grace Together Swimming Longevity Honour Trust Understanding Generating Tidal waves of change Ideas we came up with to talk about the turtle co-de- sign concept... When you think of a turtle, what words come to mind? Think about a turtle and what it means in your culture/family. What are significant features of a turtle? Talk about what a turtle looks like when its head is in its shell. Then talk about when a turtle needs to move forward it needs to stick its head out and in life sometimes we need to stick our head out, even though we may feel uncomfortable, to move forward or stretch ourselves stick your neck/head out like a turtle. You can also do a role play of how people act when asked to do something that they don’t want to do (shrugged shoulders) then show them how you can stretch your neck and put your head out...and move forward in life. What the model represents: 2. Discovery (Legs) With so many different species and sizes of turtles with varied nutrition requirements. Gather evidence of data. Talk with communities and stake holders. Identify natural leaders and work alongside them. Understand current experiences and behaviours and reframe opportunity (with people) 3. Imagine (Head) Sea Turtles from the ocean lay eggs on beaches. Usually, sea turtles lay around 110 eggs in a nest. Working with people an inspiring spaces and ideas. Empower Commu- nity ownership. Generate possible features and prioritise ideas (with people) 4. Test & Improve (Turtle) Turtles spend most of their lives in water. Try out different, iterate and improve (with people)

Because you’re hearing the voices of the community, they can contribute and build the communities they live in… having their voices heard at governance and policy level” Healthy Families Team “Thanks for asking, thanks for listening, thanks for caring” Co-design mama
