Kaupapa Māori approaches to improve Māori eye health: a protocol for a scoping review
2025
Overview
Introduction and aimMāori experience higher rates of disease and poorer health outcomes than non-Māori, highlighting inequities in the health system in Aotearoa New Zealand (Aotearoa). Māori eye health has historically been under-researched. Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, with Māori, for Māori) approaches to research have been recognised as critical for developing and informing equitable and inclusive health service solutions for Māori. This scoping review aims to summarise the literature on interventions to improve Māori eye health and investigate the extent to which Kaupapa Māori approaches have been used within these studies.Methods and analysisThis scoping review will be reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews Checklist and informed by Kaupapa Māori research and strengths-based methodologies. Electronic searches of MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Ovid) and Google Scholar were performed using keywords focused on Māori eye health, Kaupapa Māori and eye health interventions. The search was performed by an information specialist without language or time restrictions. Peer-reviewed and grey literature reports will be included if they report any intervention that aimed to improve eye health for Māori. Two reviewers will independently screen abstracts and full texts, followed by data charting in Covidence. Data items will include publication, study and intervention characteristics and whether a Kaupapa Māori approach was used, in which case the characteristics of the approach will be charted. The responsiveness to Māori of each included study will be assessed using the MĀORI framework and CONSIDER statement. Data will be summarised in tables, graphs, maps and text.Ethics and disseminationTo the best of our knowledge, the scoping review is the first to investigate published and publicly accessible literature related to interventions for improving Māori eye health and Kaupapa Māori approaches. Ethical approval is not required for this review as we will include information available in the public domain. We anticipate that the findings will be useful for Hauora Māori providers, organisations, education training and research providers of eyecare services. The scoping review also informs a more extensive project examining Indigenous perspectives in optometry to achieve equitable outcomes. Dissemination will include publication of the scoping review findings in an open-access peer-reviewed journal, as well as presentations at conferences, to Māori community and service organisations, scholars and staff working in the field of Māori eye health.RegistrationOpen science framework (https://osf.io/4vqaw/).
