Oliver Helena Fiona Te Momo is a New Zealand social worker and academic, and is a full professor at Massey University, specialising in Māori development.
Academic career
[edit]Te Momo is affiliated with Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Whakatere, and Ngāti Konohi.[1] She is a registered social worker, and completed a Master in Māori and Pacific Development with Honours, and then a PhD titled Demystifying a relationship between voluntary work and Māori at the University of Waikato.[2][1][3] Her doctoral thesis was supervised by Barbara Harrison, Maria Humphries and Russell Bishop.[2] Te Momo then joined the faculty of Massey University, rising to full professor in 2024.[1]
Te Momo is the Regional Director for the College of Humanities and Social Sciences on the Auckland campus of Massey University.[1] Te Momo's research focuses on indigenous knowledge development, which encompasses social, economic and political development at the whanau, hapu and iwi levels.[4] Te Momo has researched the cultural competency of social workers, micro-financing for hapū initiatives, and leadership by indigenous women.[1][4]
In 2018 she was asked to comment on whether fragrances being sold by an Italian creator in Russia, using Māori branding and Pasifika imagery, represented a case of cultural appropriation.[5]
In 2011, Te Momo was awarded a Massey University Māori Award. The award enabled her to undertake a research project called 'Future Cultural Social Workers', where she investigated the cultural knowledge of social work students at Massey and at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa.[4]
