Sustainability & Resilience in Pacific Island Health Systems

Join us for an insightful discussion as Te Poutoko Ora A Kiwa (Center for Pacific and Global Health) and the Center for Asia Pacific Resilience & Innovation (CAPRI) co-launch “Sustainability and Resilience in Pacific Island Health Systems.”

How can we build a resilient and healthy Pacific? This report delves into the strengths and weaknesses of health systems across Pacific Islands, especially in the Republic of Marshall Islands, Tonga, and Vanuatu. Experts from across the region and the world will discuss the challenges and opportunities for the region to improve population health, environmental sustainability, and health system governance.

Don’t miss out the chance to engage with healthcare professionals, policymakers, and researchers as we explore ways to enhance health system sustainability and resilience in the Pacific Islands.

This study is part of a series of reports on the Asia-Pacific region produced for the Partnership for Health System Sustainability and Resilience (PHSSR).
