**Mō tō mātou rōpū - About our team**

The combined Māori Health Strategy guides our activity to achieve health equity and optimal health for Māori by 2030. Our efforts to bring about change in Māori health outcomes are part of a broader public health plan that is well described in the Ministry of Health’s Whakamaua: Māori Health Action Plan.

Our Strategy focuses on equity as a value which underpins everything we do, from system change through workforce development and funding prioritisation through commissioning of services. The pathway to achieving health equity for Māori requires significant shifts, not just in the way we operate and in the processes and policies we follow, but also in our attitude and our thinking.

Delivering on the key outcomes outlined in the Māori Health Strategy is fundamental to achieving equitable health outcomes for Māori.
