Genomic medicine must reduce, not compound, health inequities : the case for hauora-enhancing genomic resources for New Zealand

Presents a case for assembling genomic resources that catalogue the characteristics of the genomes of New Zealanders, with an emphasis on peoples of Māori and Polynesian ancestry, as a healthcare imperative to place an understanding of the genetic contributors to their health outcomes in a valid context. Emphasises that the governance and management of these resources must be led by iwi and Māori and Pacific representatives and informed by cultural concepts.
