he National Bowel Screening Programme (NBSP) fails to deliver screening equitably to Pacific New Zealanders. This research explored Tongan New Zealanders' experiences of participating in the NBSP and their views on ensuring the programme works well for the Tongan community.

The Asian Health in Aotearoa 2024 report, based on data from the New Zealand Health Survey spanning from 2002 to 2021, has revealed concerning trends in the health of Asian communities in New Zealand.

Decarbonising transport might improve overall population health, save the health system money, and reduce health inequities between Māori and non-Māori. Pathways that increase physical activity have a larger effect on population health than those that rely on low-emission vehicles. The effects on inequity between Māori and non-Māori are larger in the behaviour pathway than in the technology pathway but dependent on how equitably policies supporting decarbonisation are implemented.

A key objective for this research was for its findings to inform workforce development strategies that will achieve equity for Māori and Pacific peoples with Type 2 Diabetes and other long-term conditions.

The aim of this scoping review was to map the ED-based interventions aimed at improving equity in care for Indigenous patients in EDs.

Symptoms of depression and anxiety have increased dramatically among Aotearoa New Zealand (Aotearoa) youth over the last decade, with widening inequities for Māori (Indigenous population). Increased access to quality timely treatment is essential, but not sufficient to reduce population rates of mental distress.

Pacifc people are systematically undercounted, but the impact on health statistics is not well studied.

Findings provide a platform on which to build further research regarding models of rural health care to ensure services are designed for rural NZ contexts and capable of meeting the needs of diverse rural communities.

The health system in Aotearoa New Zealand is predicated on equity in access to health services as a fundamental objective yet barriers to equitable access for migrant and refugees continue to exist.
