Join us from 1-3 May 2025 at Te Pae, Christchurch for the National Rural Health Conference. The event focused on building healthy, sustainable, and resilient rural communities is the premier event in New Zealand dedicated to rural health and wellbeing.
Over the years, the National Rural Health Conference has continued to grow, attracting a diverse range of participants from across the country and beyond. Each year, we see an increase in attendance, a broader array of topics, and more dynamic sessions that address the evolving challenges and opportunities in rural health. This growth reflects our collective commitment to improving health outcomes for rural and remote communities.
This year’s theme is all about “empowerment”. We believe that empowering those who live and work in rural areas is key to creating sustainable and effective healthcare solutions. Through this theme, we aim to highlight strategies, share success stories, and foster collaborations that empower rural health professionals and communities to take charge of their health and wellbeing.
Whether you are a healthcare consumer, professional, student, researcher, executive or policymaker, this is the must-attend event of the year. Engage with thought leaders, participate in dynamic sessions, and explore the latest in rural health research and innovation. Together, we will imagine, inspire, and innovate to create a sustainable healthcare system for rural New Zealanders.
We look forward to welcoming you to an event filled with opportunities for networking, learning, and collaboration. Let’s work together to make a difference in rural health!
