Overview

The National Cervical Screening Programme (NCSP) has begun planning for a transition to primary screening for the presence of the human papilloma virus (HPV). A key objective is to build evidence to inform the development of interventions and approaches to increase participation of Māori women in NCSP.
To achieve this we are seeking:
• Research which will inform NCSP policies for implementing self-sampling as a strategy to improve equity for Maori women.
• Research which may be qualitative and/or quantitative, and may include clinical research. The contract will be for up to 24 months.
• Researchers with a strong track record in their field; who are able to engage effectively with Māori women, their whanau and communities; and have the capacity to deliver results within the constraints of the project. The NSU would support a Kaupapa Māori research approach.
