Presenter Dr Jane Jones will be discussing this topical and important cultural issue, Experiences of Māori veterinarians and veterinary nurses in the veterinary sector in Aotearoa/New Zealand.

About the presenter:

My name is Jane Jones, and I am a companion animal veterinarian based in Christchurch. While I enjoy applying my dermatology knowledge in practice, (an area I pursued as an area of interest)  over the last few years, I've embarked on a new learning journey. This began with a commitment to learning te reo through Te Wananga o Aotearoa and has progressed to becoming a researcher, supported by Otago Polytechnic School of Veterinary Nursing and Francesca Brown.

I will be discussing this four-year research journey and providing insights into a qualitative research paper that is currently in its final editing stages. The paper is entitled: "Experiences of Māori veterinarians and veterinary nurses in the veterinary sector in Aotearoa/New Zealand." I will also share some of the personal experiences this research has afforded me, along with some of its key findings. I am hoping that this session can be an interactive conversation and you will be welcome to throw me your questions.
