Explore the nuances of familial perspectives and their cultural influences. Acknowledge that everyone can misinterpret situations and challenge your own understanding.

Gain insight into the speaker's professional roles as a Restorative Justice Facilitator and a Te Pae Oranga (Police crime prevention program) Coordinator, alongside a glimpse into her thesis topic focusing on the importance of qualitative narrative. Expect a journey filled with laughter, frustration, confusion, and determination, offering opportunities to reevaluate your perceptions.

About the speaker

Taylor Hill – New Zealand Police Senior Partnerships Advisor and Restorative Justice Facilitator, experienced in conflict resolution and trained in mediation. 

I am a Maori, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Irish, Scottish woman. Who was raised in Brisbane for my childhood, Southland for my teenage years and NZ for the rest. The confusion of sounding kind of Australian, Southland and Maori is always a good guessing game to kick of a conversation. I left school at 15 – no idea why I done that when that was the only break you get in life really, with the longest holidays. I have worked in many roles, from a Bluff oyster opener – Senior Advisor. Life is never boring, and neither will this webinar be. I cannot promise it will make sense but in my perception it will.
