In 2017, as part of a restructuring of the Bachelor of Arts degree, Massey University introduced the compulsory second-year citizenship course Tū Rangaranga: Global Encounters. Tū Rangaranga is a Māori word meaning to weave together or establish connections. The course explores citizenship from a global perspective with a focus on rights and responsibilities. In the course, students are encouraged both to reflect on the multiple factors shaping their identities, including Aotearoa New Zealand's colonial past, and to locate themselves in relation to complex global problems. This decolonial approach to curricula and pedagogy enables a greater commitment to Māori perspectives related to citizenship. This commitment is reflected in the weaving together of Māori and Western epistemologies in the course design and content. The course was developed in the context of a university that subsequently expressed a commitment to becoming a Tiriti-led university and to abide by its obligations under the Treaty of Waitangi, recognising the indigeneity and rights of Māori people. The decolonial imperative underscoring the teaching of this course was to enhance forms of collective reflection and action to address issues of cultural exclusion and disadvantage associated with colonial legacies that privilege Western epistemologies within curricula and pedagogy.

编织在一起:新西兰 Aotearoa 的全球公民教育非殖民化

2017 年,作为文学学士学位重组的一部分,梅西大学推出了必修的二年级公民课程 Tū Rangaranga: Global Encounters。Tū Rangaranga 是一个毛利语单词,意思是编织在一起或建立联系。该课程从全球角度探讨公民身份,重点是权利和责任。在课程中,鼓励学生反思塑造他们身份的多重因素,包括新西兰的殖民历史,并在复杂的全球问题中定位自己。这种对课程和教学法的非殖民主义方法能够更好地致力于与公民身份相关的毛利人观点。这一承诺体现在课程设计和内容中毛利人和西方认识论的结合。该课程是在一所大学的背景下开发的,该大学随后表示承诺成为一所由 Tiriti 领导的大学,并遵守《怀唐伊条约》规定的义务,承认毛利人的土著性和权利。强调本课程教学的非殖民主义当务之急是加强集体反思和行动的形式,以解决与殖民遗产相关的文化排斥和劣势问题,这些问题在课程和教学法中优先考虑西方认识论。
