In-person events evaluation report
Thank you to everyone who attended our Kōrure o Te Tai: Changing the direction of the tide Equally Well in-person events across October 2024 in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland (9 October), Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington (15 October) and Ōtautahi Christchurch (22 October). The events were hosted by the Equally Well backbone team in collaboration with the University of Otago.
Equally Well champions in all three cities shared that the hui validated what they already knew:
- There are both barriers and enablers which affect the access and quality of physical health care for people with mental health and substance use issues in Aotearoa New Zealand.
- Champions highlighted the importance of making connections with one another and with support organisations. Sign up for a lunchtime meetup here.
- Champions identified having access to knowledge of what physical health activities are happening around the country as a collaborative action opportunity. You can submit a physical health equity action here.
This report includes evaluation feedback and reflections from the in-person events.
