What works for Pasifika audiences
Successful activities prioritise confidentiality, involve family and community, and consider the different Pacific nations' cultures.
Why Pasifika are audiences unique
Currently, few sexual violence prevention and response services specifically target Pacific communities, and there is limited knowledge of Pacific values, cultures, and languages among mainstream service providers.
Sexual violence and low disclosure rates are serious issues within Pacific communities in New Zealand because of social and cultural factors like:
- over-representation among low socio-economic status households
- stress related to migration, like low English literacy
- a cultural emphasis on obeying elders and maintaining the reputation of the family.
