The Basics

-
Key question: What more can we be doing to improve Maori health, in particular, resilience and well being
Welcome, Tēnā koe, Haere Mai!
What more can be done to ensure whānau are able to weather the storms of life and bounce back from hard times?
We invite you to 'The Road to Resilience' Symposium - explore and learn about the challenges and opportunities that arise from becoming truly resilient, by focusing on the wellsprings of resilience...
-
a staunch acceptance of reality;
-
a deep belief, often buttressed by strongly held values, that life is meaningful;
-
and an uncanny ability to improvise.
Bringing together key sector influencers and a wide range of participants, this one-day event promises not only a great speaker line up, but a series of challenging conversations and interactive learning labs where delegates will be able to connect for future collaborations.
Nga Ngaru recognises that health is a fundamental part of our socio-economic development which is why we are bringing together members and sector organisations into a one day forum to look at ways and means of bringing new ideas and thinking to the table. The forum will be Chaired by Mere Balzer (Chairperson of Ngangaru) who has extensive experience in the health sector, facilitated by Diane Tuari and Pam Armstrong (executive office of Ngangaru) and with guest contributor Matthew Tukaki (Ngai Te Rangi), Chair of Australia's National Coalition for Suicide Prevention and a Director of Suicide Prevention Australia.
