The Āti Awa Toa Hauora Partnership Board (the Poari) is calling for kaitiaki/members to help us transform health and oranga systems to meet the needs and aspirations of whānau Māori in our rohe. You will be joining an organisation at an exciting time – the Poari has a strong track record of achievements in its first three years, and an ongoing drive to maximise its influence and impact.

As an Iwi-Māori Partnership Board, the Poari’s role is to elevate the voices of local whānau Māori, to monitor and report on system inequities for Māori and use our strategic influence to help shape government priorities and investment in areas that will make the greatest difference.

- are experienced in governance and in applying kaupapa Māori frameworks in decision-making;
- have expertise in hauora Māori, including local knowledge of the broader determinants of health and oranga in our communities;
- have strong relationships, networks and the support of their iwi, hapū, or wider communities;
- bring strategic thinking, financial and commercial acumen, political awareness; and
- can use a range of evidence to support equitable health outcomes for whānau Māori.
We are also keen to hear from rangatahi Māori, especially mana whenua and those working or studying in relevant fields.
If you want to make a difference to health, healing and wellbeing of whānau and create lasting impact for communities, we encourage you to submit an Expression of Interest.
