#PasifikaSuicidePrevention #CommunityFund
It was great to attend the Kāhui Hauora Tūmatanui o Aotearoa (Public Health Association of New Zealand) conference this week and connect with others in the space.
With the theme of "Vulnerable to Vibrant - Transformative Approaches to Public Health," it featured an impressive lineup of speakers and panelists leading public health in Aotearoa.
Our general manager, Dr Liz Mati, participated in the panel:
"Priorities, Aspirations, and the Future State of Public Health in Aotearoa New Zealand. Where to from Here?"
As always, we know that the solutions lie within our communities and that we must equip them with the right supports and resources to enable our communities to achieve the best possible health and wellbeing outcomes.
Thank you, Dr Cadence Kaumoana - CEO of PHANZ, for the invitation.

We had a great turnout for our very first Niu Wave tertiary workshop tonight.
The Talanoa was powerful and we were encouraged by all the different students that are going to represent our Pasifika communities in STEAM careers in the near future. Our future is in beautiful hands with Pasifika representation on the rise. Malo
Niu Wave is funded by the Ministry for Pacific Peoples as part of the Toloa scholarships program
