Link of the day UN report on Maoris

Link of the day, July 25 2010: James Anaya, UN Special Rapporteur on indigenous people, on a trip to New Zealand has noted “the extreme disadvantage in the social and economic conditions of Maori people…. dramatically manifested in the continued and persistent high levels of incarceration of Maori individuals,” but he added that the settlement process based on the Treaty of Waitangi is “one of the most important examples in the world of an effort to address historical and ongoing grievances of indigenous peoples.”.
