Electronic Group Communication for Cultural Support: Maori Electronic Networking in New Zealand

Robert John McQueen, Hemi Rau, Wharehuia Milroy

Abstract

Electronic group communication systems are of potential use in supporting group communication in contexts where cultural norms and traditions have defined clear protocols for face to face communication. The characteristics of electronic group communication and requirements for success are discussed. Group communication protocols of the Maori people in New Zealand are introduced briefly, and a project using Lotus Notes is described which will support electronic group communication within and among Maori groups.
