Nel quinto episodio di Te Tiriti per Italiani Miriam Sessa, Davide Castorina e Angelo Tedoldi parlano delle persone che materialmente redassero e tradussero Te Tiriti o Waitangi nel 1840. È importante capire che esistono due versioni del trattato: quella scritta in inglese e quella tradotta in Te Reo per i 503 Rangatira convenuti a Waitangi per discutere il trattato. Miriam spiega i contenuti del trattato che fu presentato con un preambolo orale per affermare l'indipendenza maori e promuovere idee di convivenza e coesistenza tra la popolazione maori e i sudditi britannici residenti e futuri. Miriam spiega i tre articoli + il quarto aggiuntivo che costituisco il trattato, come sono stati espressi in Te Reo nel febbraio 1840 e del loro significato all'interno della cultura maori. L'enfasi di questo episodio è di mettere in luce le differenze profonde tra la versione inglese e quella in Te Reo, con implicazioni significative anche per la realtà sociopolitica contemporanea. La versione in Te Reo è riconosciuta dall'ONU come l'accordo storico fondamentale per la protezione dei diritti dei Māori, in linea con la Dichiarazione dei Diritti dei Popoli Indigeni delle Nazioni Unite.

Australian society is aging and a large part of this group has a migrant background. How can these people be adequately supported and cared for? And what are politicians doing to support this? We talk with Nikolaus Rittinghausen, senior advisor aging at the Ethnic Communities' Council of Victoria (ECCV). - Die australische Gesellschaft altert und ein großer Teil dieser Gruppe hat einen Migrationshintergrund. Wie können diese Menschen angemessen unterstützt und gepflegt werden? Und was tut die Politik in diesem Bereich? Darüber sprechen wir mit Nikolaus Rittinghausen.

In this fifth episode exploring what it means to be second or third-generation Italian in New Zealand, Carla Rotondo talks to Salvatore Gargiulo, a retired school principal from Nelson. His grandfather came to NZ from Capo di Sorrento in 1920, joining other Italians he knew, in what is known as chain migration. Initially he worked in the fishing industry, and once settled he sent for his wife and his two older children. Salvatore's father, Vincenzo, was born in NZ in 1923, he went to war as NZ soldier in Italy part of the Allied Forces, fighting against the Italian regime. Returned from war he married a NZ woman and Salvatore was born in 1951. During Covid Salvatore spend many hours reading his father‘s war dairies to compile a book called Getting to know dad from his dairies. The war experience was very distressful for Vince and he never went back to Italy. The Gargiulo family was part of the Nelson Italian community, and now Salvatore is the vice-president of the Club Italia.

Nel quarto episodio di Te Tiriti per Italiani Miriam Sessa, Davide Castorina e Angelo Tedoldi parlano dei giorni precedenti al trattato di Waitangi e dei personaggi fondamentali del momento: Lord Normanby, il Segretario di Stato per le Colonie, Capitan Williams Hobson, luogotenente -governatore, che arrivò solo qualche giorno prima malato in Aotearoa, and James Busby. Il 5 febbraio 1840, più di 500 Māori si riunirono a Waitangi per discutere il contenuto del trattato proposto dalla Corona britannica. La versione Māori del trattato fu letta ad alta voce da Henry Williams e suo figlio Edward, missionari che avevano tradotto il testo in te reo Māori. Il trattato veniva proposto da William Hobson per stabilire un'autorità britannica e creare un accordo legale con i capi Māori. L'obiettivo, secondo i britannici, era di portare "ordine" tra coloni europei e popolazioni indigene. Tuttavia, i capi Māori avevano preoccupazioni profonde. Molti di loro erano esperti negoziatori e leader politici, consapevoli delle conseguenze di firmare un documento che avrebbe potuto limitare la loro sovranità (rangatiratanga). Altri capi, tuttavia, riconobbero i vantaggi potenziali di un accordo con la Corona. La discussione durò tutto il giorno.   Per il supporto alla realizzazione di questo programma, Ondazzurra ringrazia il Ministry of Ethnic Communities, che promuove la diversità ed inclusione in Aotearoa, e COGS Auckland City, che sostiene iniziative non-profit rivolte alla comunità.  https://www.ethniccommunities.govt.nz/

Che cosa succede nel cervello quando ci sentiamo soli? E perché, per chi vive lontano dal proprio paese, questa esperienza può diventare ancora più complessa? In questo terzo episodio di Solitudine: voci dall'estero, esploriamo il lato nascosto della solitudine: quello biologico, fatto di neuroni, ormoni e percezioni. Lo facciamo con Daniele Scanzi, ricercatore italiano in neuroscienze cognitive che vive e lavora in Nuova Zelanda. Con lui proviamo a capire perché la solitudine non è semplicemente stare da soli, ma una discrepanza tra le relazioni che abbiamo e quelle che desideriamo. Daniele ci spiega cosa succede quando il cervello entra in stato di allerta sociale: l'amigdala si fa più sensibile ai segnali negativi, la corteccia prefrontale fatica a regolare le emozioni, e il cortisolo, l'ormone dello stress, resta alto anche in assenza di pericoli reali. Ma il cervello è plastico e la scienza ci offre anche strumenti per contrastare gli effetti della solitudine. Un dialogo tra ricerca, esperienza personale e domande che ci riguardano tutti, ovunque siamo.

In this fourth episode of a series exploring what it means to be second or third-generation Italian in New Zealand, Carla Rotondo talks to Yolanda Persico. Yolanda grew up in Nelson in The Wood, a neighbourhood densely populated by the Italians. Most Italians arrived in Nelson by chain migration from Massalubrense, including her paternal grandfather Giacomo, who became a naturalised citizen and returned to Italy to marry Yolanda's grandmother. Yolanda's mother emigrated as a girl with her Gargiulo family; they also settled in The Wood and worked, like most of the Italian community, in the tomato growing production. She is telling the stories of the Italian families she grew up with in The Wood, a very close-knit community of people's homes and glass houses. Yolanda has contributed to the book ”Pasta, Prayer & Promise” the ultimate book about the Italians immigrants in Nelson. Stories from the 1950's and during World War II, when Italy was an enemy to the Allied Forces and some Italians were classified as enemy aliens and interned on Somes Island in the Wellington Harbour.

In questo terzo episodio Miriam Sessa, Francesca Marzatico e Davide Castorina ci raccontano il primo periodo di incontro e commercio tra i Māori e gli europei. Gli inizi della storia coloniale neozelandese sono legati a quella australiana, dove la Corona inglese stabilisce una colonia penale. Sydney diventa il punto di partenza per gli interessi economici verso la NZ, per le risorse naturali come lino, balene, foche, legname. La chiesa anglicana sviluppa interessi ad evangelizzare Aotearoa volendo stabilire missioni presso i maori (colonizzazione dell'anima) e aprire la strada all'impero britannico attraverso l'evangelizzazione. Nel 1820 alcuni capi maori viaggiano in Inghilterra volendo conoscere i corrispondenti capi dell'Impero britannico. Impatti positivi come nuove tecniche agricole, introduzione delle patate, armi da fuoco, alfabetizzazione, apprendimento della scrittura; e negativi come le battaglie e decimazioni intertribali delle muskets wars. Nel 1835 la confederazione di 52 Rangatira, capi maori del nord, firma He Whakaputanga, primo documento costituzionale della NZ, tuttora documento vivo, che dichiara una nazione con assoluta indipendenza e sovranità maori sul territorio.

Elia Bressanello e Giulio Pitroso ospitano Roberta Capelli, Professoressa di Lingue e Letterature Romanze presso l'Università degli Studi di Trento. Parlano di migrazione intellettuale: non solo “fuga dei cervelli”, ma anche esperienze di solitudine linguistica, culturale e creativa. Quali sfide affronta chi porta la ricerca oltre confine? E cosa ci dice sulla solitudine di ogni migrante? Un dialogo profondo tra vita accademica, esilio e identità.

In this third episode exploring what it means to be second or third-generation Italian in New Zealand, Carla Rotondo talks to Vincenzo Cocurullo, the Mayor of Whangārei from 2022 to 2025 and District Council Councillor for the previous six years. His Italian side originated from his nonno, grandfather, who was born in Piano di Sorrento and settled in Whangārei. The Cocurullo family mixed with a small group of Italians, particularly with Dora and Vincenzo Russo, who owned a café and had emigrated to NZ encouraged by Vince's grandfather. Vince has visited Piano di Sorrento and his relatives there, and even though in his growing up in NZ the Italian influence was limited, he discovered that he had lots of mannerisms and non-verbal communication similar to his Sorrentina family. In Whangārei Vince lives in the house that his nonno built, makes limoncello, grows grapes from the grapevines planted by his nonno, makes mozzarella cheese….he is definitely an Italo-kiwi.

Miriam Sessa, Davide Castorina e Angelo Tedoldi si alternano a raccontare elementi importanti per capire la storia di Aotearoa. La conversazione si snoda sulle seguenti domande: Quando sono arrivati i primi umani in Aotearoa? Cosa stava accadendo nel mondo e in Italia in quel periodo? Cosa sappiamo delle società Māori prima dell'arrivo degli europei? Quando sono arrivati i primi europei in Aotearoa? Qual è stato il primo impatto coi Māori? Cosa ha motivato l'Impero Britannico a stabilirsi in Aotearoa? Parlano del leggendario navigatore polinesiano Kupe, e di sua moglie che vedendo una lunga nuvola bianca ricoprire questa terra la chiamò Aotearoa. Raccontano i 700 anni precedenti all'arrivo degli europei e di come i Māori vivevano organizzati in hapū, strutture sociali fortemente legate alla terra e alle risorse naturali. Ci parlano dei viaggi esplorativi di Abel Tasman a James Cook; del ruolo della Chiesa nel progetto coloniale e della dottrina della scoperta che dava  giustificazione spirituale e legale al rivendicare terre se non erano abitate da cristiani. Tante considerazioni importanti per allontanarsi da una visione eurocentrica della storia.

Gianni was born and raised in Muriwai on the west coast near Auckland, on a farm that is still in the family. Gianni's father emigrated to NZ with his parents Zita ed Eugenio. They came as refugees from Istria, where after the Second World War the borders were changed and they village was no longer part of Italy. A great aunt had married a NZ soldier and Gianni's grandparents decided also to move to NZ. Gianni's grandfather was a language teacher, and Zita was a dressmaker who later set up her own high-fashion label, Moda Bella. Both were founding members of the Dante Alighieri Society and Zita was also the President in the '70s. Gianni is telling us about his time with relatives in Trieste learning Italian, his involvement with the mandolin orchestra and the big passion in life: his profession as a winemaker. Gianni is a qualified viticulturist and oenologist and has worked for major winemaker companies in NZ. In 2010, he started on the family farm a small vineyard of Nebbiolo, a difficult variety to grow in the Auckland climate, now producing about 300 litres of Flego Wines. https://flegowine.substack.com/ Per il supporto alla realizzazione di questo programma Ondazzurra ringrazia l'Ambasciata d'Italia a Wellington, https://ambwellington.esteri.it/en/ che promuove la lingua e cultura italiana in Nuova Zelanda, e il Ministry for Ethnic Communities che promuove la diversità ed inclusione in Aotearoa. https://www.ethniccommunities.govt.nz/

Carla Rotondo talks to Michael Giacon about his kiwi-Italian upbringing and identity. Michael is a poet, performer and former senior lecturer. He was born in Auckland in the '50s in a large Italian-Pākehā family. His father Luigi was from Montebelluna in Veneto and his mother Mary was from Napier, where they met in the aftermath of the earthquake. His father arrived in NZ in 1928, aged 18 and shortly after started the Terrazzo flooring trade, which still continues today as a well-known family business. Michael grew up in Herne Bay, the youngest of five children, in a house with terrazzo floors and murals built by his father, that was also the center of the Italian and expat community of that time. To convey some of his emotions, Michael read from his book “Undressing in slow motion” recollections about love and loss: his childhood memories of the Italian Club in the ‘60s, the glamour of the Sunday night club gatherings, the singers and film stars of the time….a mix of sadness and wonder, evocative of a time and people all gone.

Almost half of New Zealand's public servants are working from home one day a week, according to data released by The Public Service Commission. The IRD and the Ministry for Ethnic Communities have more than 80% of their staff working from home at least once a week. Public Service Association Acting National Secretary Fleur Fitzsimons said it might not be a bad thing. "We want a system whereby public servants are able to work from home, where it offers a win-win for them and for the employer." LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ethnic communities say the proposed changes to the Accredited Employer Work Visa scheme is a positive step but more needs to be done. Immigration minister Erica Stanford announced the changes Sunday, including the introduction of an English-language requirement for migrants applying for low-skilled jobs and a shorter continuous stay.

A group of migrants scammed out of tens of thousands of dollars for the promise of work in New Zealand now have just three days before they have nowhere to live. Immigration New Zealand officials are investigating the exploitation of Indian and Bangladeshi migrants after 144 were found living in crammed and unsanitary conditions in across 10 houses in Auckland.

Racist bullying is shaming children to hide their ethnic identity at school, because the bullies are the teachers as well as pupils.  The Education Review Office has found one in five learners from ethnic communities experienced racist bullying in the last month, and more than half saw their peers bullied for the same reason.  Nearly a third of learners from Asian, Middle Eastern and other backgrounds said their school did not take the problem seriously. ERO deputy chief executive Ruth Shinoda spoke to Jane Patterson.   

Terzo episodio della serie "I viandanti della cultura" curata da Marco Sonzogni e Federico Magrin. La scrittura diventa una questione personale nelle poesie di Alessandra Corbetta, ma sino a quali confini? Marco Sonzogni e Federico Magrin si interrogano sulla scrittura come strumento ed estensione della vita. Attraversando la poesia, la filosofia e la letteratura, la conversazione si sofferma sulla poetessa italiana che vede la creazione artistico-poetica come un mezzo di espressione personale e verticale, ovvero capace di sondare le profondità più recondite della vita quanto di scalarne le vette. Dissezionando il ruolo dell'artista come acrobata cistercense in bilico sul trapezio, sospeso sopra una voragine da una fune sottile quanto una parola, il dialogo letterario termina con una riflessione sulla diversità della solitudine, come confronto con il sé autoriale, dall'isolamento, come fuga dal pubblico e dalla condivisione Ringraziamo gli sponsor di questo episodio: il Ministry for Ethnic Communities www.ethniccommunities.govt.nz e il MAECI, Ministero Affari Esteri e Cooperazione Internazionale https://www.esteri.it/it

The latest Census revealed we're more culturally diverse as a nation than ever before. So, we're asking the question: ‘should the next census include more questions about ethnicity?' We dive into the pros and cons, which are more complicated than you might think. Historian Dr Amrita Malhi, fellow at the Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs at ANU; and Mohammed Al-Khafaji, CEO of the Federation of Ethnic Communities' Councils of Australia join us to hash it out. Last month the federal government announced it will begin collecting more specific ethnicity data in the next Census. Is it the right move? Or could it lead to tension if we create what's been dubbed a ‘racial hierarchy'.
