The values and belief systems of a society, including media portrayals, shape how health and illness present. Traditionally, Western portrayals of eating disorders have been prioritized over and above Indigenous realities. This paper explores the lived experiences of M\u0101ori with eating disorders and their wh\u0101nau (family\/support system) to identify the enablers and barriers to accessing specialist services for eating disorders in New Zealand.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Kaupapa M\u0101ori research methodology was used to ensure the research supported M\u0101ori health advancement. Fifteen semi-structured interviews were completed with M\u0101ori participants including; those with an eating disorder diagnosis (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder), and\/or their wh\u0101nau. Structural, descriptive, and pattern coding was undertaken within the thematic analysis. Low\u2019s spatializing culture framework was used to interpret the findings.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Two overarching themes identified systemic and social barriers to accessing treatment for M\u0101ori with eating disorders. The first theme, was space, that described the material culture within eating disorder settings. This theme critiqued eating disorder services, including idiosyncratic use of assessment methods, inaccessible service locations, and the limited number of beds available in specialist mental health services. The second theme, place, referred to the meaning given to social interactions created within space. Participants critiqued the privileging of non-M\u0101ori experiences, and how this makes a place and space of exclusion for M\u0101ori and their wh\u0101nau in eating disorder services in New Zealand. Other barriers included shame and stigma, while enablers included family support and self-advocacy.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>More education is needed for those working in the space of primary health settings about the diversity of those with eating disorders to enable them to look beyond the stereotype of what an eating disorder looks like, and to take seriously the concerns of whaiora and wh\u0101nau who present with disordered eating concerns. There is also a need for thorough assessment and early referral for eating disorder treatment to ensure the benefits of early intervention are enabled for M\u0101ori. Attention given to these findings will ensure a place for M\u0101ori in specialist eating disorder services in New Zealand.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Graphical Abstract<\/jats:title>\n                \n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40337-023-00748-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,21]],"date-time":"2023-02-21T12:05:59Z","timestamp":1676981159000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Reimagining eating disorder spaces: a qualitative study exploring M\u0101ori experiences of accessing treatment for eating disorders in Aotearoa New Zealand"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Mau Te Rangimarie","family":"Clark","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jenni","family":"Manuel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cameron","family":"Lacey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suzanne","family":"Pitama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruth","family":"Cunningham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer","family":"Jordan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"sup1","key":"748_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"S23","DOI":"10.1080\/08039488.2018.1525642","volume":"72","author":"JM Stern","year":"2018","unstructured":"Stern JM.
