Indigenous Health: Rarotonga will host more than 600 delegates at an Indigenous health and knowledge conference from 9–13 November, with sessions on healing and a dedicated youth forum. Remote Care: A six-week NZDF mission to Penrhyn delivered medical and dental services alongside water and school improvements, including five solar stills for clean drinking water. Mental Health: Te Kainga is using October outreach to raise awareness and support families affected by alcohol addiction. Health Systems: Pacific health officials meeting in Rarotonga have put AI, health data and research on the regional cooperation agenda.
