Day Three: Honouring and celebrating the Te Niwha Journey - our final day at Tūrangawaewae & the sessions had a large focus on sharing a range of insights and learnings from the Te Niwha funded research.

There was a lot of focus on Te Ao Māori and innovation for better community health 🌱

We were able to see our awesome PHF Science partner's poster presentations and it was such a highlight to see the data and current results of the Carriage Study's research presented so thoroughly.

Our team presented on Community-Led Approaches to Carriage Surveillance of Infectious Diseases in Te Hiku o Te Ika, starting off with a Haka which drew in a crowd from the other session.

We were able to share the journey of our field research and success of our ongoing Carriage Study which highlighted the importance of community led research.

What a privilege it was to attend such an insightful and important kaupapa & ngā mihi nui Te Niwha, Waikato Tainui & Tūrangawaewae for hosting 🔬🧫🧬

Day Two: Sir Ashley Bloomfield facilitated the morning discussions around pandemic preparedness and we heard from leading scholars about their current infectious diseases surveillance in Aotearoa.

The day was split into 4 sessions with two rooms running 15 minute talks on various study presentations where we were able to pick and choose which talks to go and listen to. From Antibiotic use in Aotearoa to Developing a Kaupapa Māori framework for infectious disease surveillance, we were surrounded by such insightful and important scientific research.

Our team managed to have a quick kōrero with Sir Ashley Bloomfield at the end of the day. 📸🧪🩺

Our Waharoa ki te Toi team recently traveled to the National Infectious Diseases & Pandemic Preparedness Summit 2025 held at Tūrangawaewae.

Day One: The researchers and presenters from across Aotearoa congregated outside of Tūrangawaewae for the Pōwhiri. We were warmly welcomed onto the Marae with Bishop Kitohi Pikaahu as our Kaikōrero representing the Te Niwha cohort.

Muriwhenua representation was large for day one of the information talks with Dr Te Anga Nathan leading off the afternoon session. Our team supported our Muriwhenua whanau Maihi Makiha who spoke on Mātauranga and Science in action 🧬💥

Kia ora e te iwi! 🌿

A huge mihi to all the whānau from Te Hiku o te Ika who have taken part in our study over the past few months. Your support and willingness to be involved has made this kaupapa such a success! 🙌🏽

We’ve now completed the swabbing phase and are working closely with our wider infectious disease research team to explore the data carefully. Together, we’re building insights that will help strengthen health and disease resilience for our people in Te Hiku and for Māori across Aotearoa.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou katoa — we couldn’t have done it without you and look forward to sharing the final story with our people in the coming months! 💛
