UoM Expression of Interest
‘Grief’ is an emotion described as being ‘seen but not heard’. However, creating a safe space and using Indigenous and tacit knowledge, combined with Pasifika methodologies, to walk through the grief process have allowed grief to now be ‘seen and heard’.
Ula O Mānatunatu Workshops is an Indigenous approach to supporting Pasifika intergenerationally who have experienced the loss of a loved one. The content of the workshops applies indigenous knowledge, Pasifika values and principles, and the engagement of the following concepts:
1. Fa'afaletui (gather together)
2. Talanoa (talk)
3. Measina / Ula creation (treasure)
