Pūtahi Manawa Vision
To achieve heart health equity for Māori and Pacific Peoples.
Kia tutuki ai te mana o te hauora ngākau mō ngā iwi Māori me ngā iwi o Te Moananui-a-Kiwa.
Ia ausia le tulaga tutusa o le soifua maloloina o le fatu mo Maori ma Tagata Pasefika.

Tihei mauri ora!
Ko te pūtahi manawa o te ora
Ko te pūtahi manawa o te kōrero
Ko te pūtahi manawa o te iwi
Ko Pūtahi Manawa tēnei e mihi ake nei
Kei ngā mana, kei ngā reo
Nau mai haere mai ki tēnei pae tukutuku o Pūtahi Manawa

 

Behold, the breath of life
A gathering of heart health experts
A confluence of research  
A meeting place of communities

Pūtahi Manawa focuses on collaborative research and educational initiatives as we strive to make a significant impact in cardiovascular health in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Our goal is to create a future where every individual enjoys improved heart well-being and overall cardiovascular health.

 

At the heart of our research is an innovative "business not as usual" approach, fostering collaboration with our Māori and Pacific communities to cultivate a more equitable health research workforce and a dynamic research environment.

 

These whakatauki proverbs speaks to the collaborative efforts of different groups working together to achieve a common desired outcome.
