Definition

Maori segregation refers to the discrimination and separation of the Maori people, who are the indigenous people of New Zealand. This segregation has been historically prominent in New Zealand, where Maori people were marginalized in society, denied access to resources, education, and opportunities, and forced to live in separate and often inferior conditions. This segregation has had long-lasting social, economic, and cultural impacts on the Maori community. Efforts have been made in recent years to address these inequalities and promote greater inclusion and equality for the Maori people.
