Abstract：
The establishment of a culturally diverse surgical workforce, largely on the basis of gender, has been highly promoted in Australasia in the last decade. Despite this, discussions of gender diversity in surgery have largely excluded Indigenous women. This study presents the experiences of wāhine Māori and Pasifika doctors in Aotearoa, who formed a surgical sisterhood to support them towards applying for advanced surgical training. Utilising mana wāhine and Masi methodologies, semi-structured interpersonal interviews were undertaken with five wāhine who formed the surgical sisterhood. Following transcription and analysis of all interviews, four key themes were identified. These were mana wāhine, unity, our why and change on the horizon. These themes illustrate the complex and varied experiences of wāhine Māori and Pasifika and how they have navigated their surgical pathways amidst multiple layers of discrimination towards being in a position to apply for advanced surgical training.
摘要：
建立文化多元的外科劳动力,主要基于性别，在过去的十年里，在澳大拉西亚得到了很高的推广。尽管如此,关于手术中性别多样性的讨论在很大程度上排除了土著妇女。这项研究介绍了奥特罗阿的wāhine毛利人和Pasifika医生的经验，他们组建了一个外科姐妹会，以支持他们申请高级外科培训。利用法力和马西方法，与组成外科姐妹会的五名wāhine进行了半结构化的人际访谈。在对所有访谈进行转录和分析之后，确定了四个关键主题。这些是法力，团结,我们的原因和变化在地平线上。这些主题说明了毛利人和Pasifika的复杂多变的经历，以及他们如何在多层歧视中导航其手术途径，以便能够申请高级手术培训。
