Te Pāti Māori says it will rebuild and strengthen a Māori-led health authority. It wants to shift health services away from only responding to crises, toward preventing problems and supporting whole-family wellbeing. The party says services must be easy to reach, culturally safe, and answerable to Māori communities.
“A health system that does not understand Māori will keep failing Māori.”
“Shift the system toward prevention and whānau wellbeing, not just crisis response.”
“Make services accessible, culturally safe, and accountable to Māori.”
