Te Ha`Ora (The Breath of Life)National Respiratory Strategy
Everyone has a role to play in
improving the status quo
No need to ‘reinvent the wheel’
• We know what works/what doesn’t
• Various models of care have been
tried
• Community engagement is important
• Cross sectoral cooperation is NOT
optional!

you the story about Pasifika

Who are Pacific Peoples?
Heterogeneity – over 20 different
ethnic groups (Polynesia, Melanesia
and Micronesia)
Auckland – largest Pacific city in the
world (71% NZ Pacific population)
• Young
• Urban
• High population growth
• Low income
• Low employment and labour force participation
• Low educational attainment

PASIFIKA PEOPLES: NOT AN
INSIGNIFICANT MINORITY….
In 2026, one in

ethnicity .

Pacific Health Headlines
Good Progress in some areas
High rates of Pacific community engagement with health service initiatives:
• PHO enrolment -nearly 100%
• Pacific immunisation rates >90%, Alliance Health Plus PHO usually in top 5 for immunisations
• Enrolment in chronic care programmes – e.g. Diabetes Get Checked uptake in 2004: Pacific 92%, European 63%, Maori 27%
• Improved rates of uptake of cancer screening – cervical and mammography
• Community engagement and mobilisation through church based community action programmes, working with community and church leaders – e.g. Lotu Mo’ui, Enua Ola, HVAZ

Rheumatic fever remains an unsolved
problem in NZ
Significant disease impact
600-800 admissions p.a.
Premature death
Rheumatic Fever causes 150-
200 deaths p.a. in NZ
This is two times the number of
people who die from cervical
cancer

tobacco, obesity and alcohol

Summary
Pacific people are a significant population in New
Zealand.
Pacific people experience persisting disparities in
health outcomes, higher rates of chronic disease and
risk factors for health, and lower access to quality health
services that they require to meet their needs.
Growing understanding that the problems are similar for
Pacific populations in the region, and in migrant
populations in high income countries.
Current health system responses are inadequate and
there is limited research focused on Pacific specific
solutions.
![Page 36: Improving the effectiveness of the message and the … the effectiveness of the message and the messenger Dr Api Talemaitoga GP, Pacific Health Advocate Chair, Tangata O Le Moana Declaration](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030716/5b014a1f7f8b9a6a2e8e0cff/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Learnings from New Zealand – what has the
potential to work better?
Consumer voice and community engagement.
Pacific health workforce and Pacific models of
care.
Pacific focused research and robust evaluation
and monitoring of programmes to strengthen
the evidence base for Pacific health and inform
policy and practice.
Comprehensive government and international
policies, multisectoral action, collaborative long
term approaches,
