Uniting Pacific researchers, practitioners, and community partners to strengthen health and wellbeing through collective knowledge, collaboration, and Pacific-led innovation.

This two-day conference features:

•Keynote presentations

•Interactive workshops

•Breakout sessions and talanoa

•Community and academic engagement

•Reflection and knowledge exchange
