I timata te redrosethorns hei toa ipurangi e hoko ana i nga rama kua ringihia e te ringa, i timata i te tau 2020. Ko ta matou whainga ko te mutunga ka hangaia he waahi e taea ai e matou te whakamana i etahi atu ma te matauranga mo nga take penei i te hauora hinengaro, nga mahi tiaki whaiaro, me te ira tangata/ira tangata. E whakapono ana matou ki te tauritenga me te mohio kei reira nga uauatanga o te hapori e pupuri ana i a tatou ki muri me te pupuri i te wehewehenga me te rangatira o te punaha patereareha. E whakapono ana matou ko tetahi huarahi ki te anga whakamua me te wawahi i enei mekameka, ma te matauranga, ma te mohio, ma te whakaora whaiaro me te hapori.
Ma te whakaaro ki tenei kaupapa, ka tuku ratonga whakangungu a redrosethorns, ma te whakamahi i nga tikanga whakamaarama whanonga hinengaro (CBT) hei whakaako i nga tangata takitahi me pehea te hono atu ki a ratau ake, ka tukuna e matou he awheawhe mo nga mahi tiaki whaiaro hei hanga i to raatau utu. Ka tukuna ano e matou nga huarahi whakaputa - na roto i ta maatau moheni a-tau me te hautaka ipurangi - hei akiaki i nga tangata takitahi ki te korero me te whakaputa i o raatau reo. Ko a tatou korero te mea e hono ana i a tatou, engari ano hoki te mea e whakakaha ana i a tatou ki te neke ki te huarahi e pai ake ana ki a tatou ko wai tatou, o tatou uara, me o tatou hiahia. Ma tenei ka timata tatou ki te wetewete i te patriarchy, kotahi te tangata whai mana, me nga hapori whai mana i te wa kotahi.
