Health Coalition Aotearoa: Healthy Futures Summit

Join us at Te Māhurehure Marae in Auckland to drive systems change and learn from world-leading experts.
This is a unique opportunity to collaborate with public health leaders, policymakers, community organisers, rangatahi, and researchers to design scalable health interventions centred on prevention. Keynote speaker Professor Gary Sacks, an internationally recognised leader in food policy and prevention economics, will present a bold roadmap for reshaping systems to support long-term wellbeing and set out what needs to happen now.

Tackle the Big Levers: Join Prevention Hub sessions that examine core drivers of harm, from alcohol sponsorship and junk food marketing to nicotine regulation, ultra-processed foods, and corporate influence on policy. Walk away with actionable strategies you can implement today.

Shifting Systems, Not Symptoms: Engage with experts leading change in prevention economics, Indigenous health leadership, and policy reform. Work alongside them to develop practical, forward-thinking solutions.

Community-Led, Not Top-Down: Participate in interactive panels, rangatahi-led kōrero, and sessions designed to centre equity, sovereignty, and lived experience.
