Answer to Question 1

ANS: False

Cultural awareness is becoming conscious that there are similarities and differences between cultural groups; cultural sensitivity is becoming alert to the legitimacy of difference and the impact that the midwife's own culture may have on others.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D

The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 between Mori and the British Crown representative. The Treaty of Waitangi articulates a particular relationship between Mori and generations of settlers who have come to New Zealand since the early 1800s. Cultural safety had the Treaty of Waitangi as its starting point, and involved recognition that power needed to be shared and racism de-institutionalised.
