We’re excited to let you know that SYHPANZ has a new name – Te Kāhui Korowai Rangatahi Youth Health Aotearoa and this brand new website.
Our te reo Māori ingoa was gifted to us and reflects our ongoing commitment as a collective of leaders to nurture and protect rangatahi across Aotearoa. It also aligns with our vision of seeing all young people in Aotearoa thrive.
Alongside our new name, we’ve launched this new website to better reflect who we are and the mahi we do: www.tekahuikorowairangatahi.co.nz
Have a look around the website, you’ll find information about our kaupapa, our work including advocacy activities, resources for the youth health workforce, and upcoming events.
Please let us know what you think and if you have any feedback.
Thank you for your ongoing support and collaboration. This new chapter brings a name change and a new look. It reflects our ongoing commitment to support, connect and advocate for those working in youth health as a strong, united voice for the wellbeing of rangatahi.
