Health and wellbeing of M āori secondary school students in New Zealand: Trends between 2001, 2007 and 2012.

CONCLUSIONS: There have been significant improvements for Māori youth in areas of health where there has been investment. Priority areas identified require adequate resourcing alongside addressing systematic discrimination and poverty. Implications for public health: Socioeconomic contexts, discrimination, healthcare access and identified priority health areas must be addressed to improve equity for Māori youth. Building on these gains and hastening action on indicators that have not improved, or have worsened, is required. PMID: 30370961 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
