Each year Te Pūtahitanga o Te Waipounamu holds a symposium to celebrate, learn and share the collective stories of Whānau Ora across Te Waipounamu

It provides a space to reconnect with one another, strengthen relationships, and above all to remind ourselves of the why behind Whānau Ora — seeing our whānau and communities thrive.

See below for videos of the speakers from 2019 and their inspiring kōrero.
