Te Niwha welcomes you to the second instalment of the Aotearoa New Zealand Infectious Diseases and Pandemic Preparedness Summit for 2024.

Across our network we have all been contributing research efforts towards preparing Aotearoa New Zealand for infectious disease threats of today and the future.  Alongside Te Niwha research projects – this Summit is an open invitation to all that research for pandemics and infectious diseases.

As a network we have all, also, worked hard on our relationships between iwi, communities, researchers, and partner organisations and coming together in partnership.

The November Summit is a call for everyone within our unified network to share our research, our findings and participate in discussions. Two initial highlights to look forward to and register now for are:

• Science Media SAVVY Express Training
• Network and Stakeholder dinner to be held at Parliament House

We look forward to you and your team joining us in Wellington at Rutherford House.  The diverse programme will feature international keynotes, talks, panel discussions, workshops, and a conference dinner where you can kōrero and explore deeper connections with others involved in this crucial mahi.

Don't miss this opportunity to be part of this strong, prepared and unified network.

We will update this website with information about exciting aspects of the Summit as they are confirmed. 

Ngā manaakitanga,

The Te Niwha Team
