Mō te aha
What is the survey about?
We ask about a wide range of topics including how your life and health are going, and a few questions about you to make sure we have surveyed a wide range of Māori.
He aha mātou e pātai
Why are we asking you?
It is important that the results represent the opinions of as many Māori as possible. We selected participants from the New Zealand Electoral Rolls held by the independent New Zealand Electoral Commission. We did this so that we could reach people from a wide range of backgrounds and be confident that our results would be representative of Māori adults.
