To make a meaningful impact in heart health equity, we believe in the power of collaboration and community engagement. Our approach is rooted in a ‘business not as usual’  approach where we actively bridge the gap between researchers and communities. 

Our researchers engage with the communities they aim to serve, seeking to understand their unique perspectives, concerns, and needs. In this way, we ensure that our heart health research is culturally responsive, relevant, and truly representative of the people they are designed to benefit.

If you’re interested in research, co-design and are committed to heart health equity for Māori, Pacific Peoples and women please check our funding opportunities page.
