The connection the Māori, the Indigenous people of Aotearoa-New Zealand, have to the land is threatened by the effects of colonisation, urbanisation and other factors. In particular, many Māori suffer significant health and wellbeing inequalities compared to the non-Māori population. In an effort to reduce such inequalities, there is a growing consciousness of the need to better understand the cultural and place-specific determinants that affect the health and wellbeing of population groups in different environments. This article explores how environmental and cultural connections to land enable the development of place-specific and culturally-driven principles that promote the health and wellbeing of Māori populations. It argues that concepts of place, belonging, landscape and wellbeing play an important role in linking environment and culture as well as in contributing to creating therapeutic spatial environments that promote both human health and ecosystems. A set of principles is developed that allows for the landscape design of such therapeutic environments while accommodating the socio-cultural and environmental values that promote health and wellbeing of both Māori and non-Māori people.

发展适合文化的治疗环境的场所感和归属感：综述

殖民地，城市化和其他因素的威胁使毛利人，奥特罗阿-新西兰的土著人与土地的联系受到威胁。尤其是，与非毛利人相比，许多毛利人遭受着严重的健康和福祉不平等。为了减少这种不平等，人们越来越意识到需要更好地了解影响不同环境中人口群体健康和福祉的文化和特定地点的决定因素。本文探讨了与土地的环境和文化联系如何促进针对特定地点和文化驱动的原则的发展，这些原则促进了毛利人的健康。它认为位置，归属，景观和福祉在将环境与文化联系起来，以及为创造促进人类健康和生态系统的治疗性空间环境做出贡献方面发挥着重要作用。制定了一套原则，以允许对此类治疗环境进行景观设计，同时适应促进毛利人和非毛利人健康和福祉的社会文化和环境价值。
