The Paediatric Society of New Zealand has introduced a set of core values that will guide our mahi and support our vision that “Tamariki in Aotearoa flourish in health and wellness.”
In late 2024, members of the PSNZ Council, Executive, Admin Team and Governance Group came together for a facilitated workshop to explore what truly matters to our people, our mahi and the tamariki at the heart of it all. The result is a values framework that will guide how we work, relate and lead as an organisation.
Our core values | Ngā Mātāpono
-
Te Tiaki Tamariki | Child-Centred Care
-
Whakawhanaungatanga | Relationships
-
Manaakitanga | Respectfulness
-
Māia | Courage
-
Mana Taurite | Equity
These values reflect the depth of our kaupapa and the care with which our members approach their roles across the child health sector.
To our members, colleagues and communities — thank you for continuing to champion the wellbeing of tamariki and whānau across Aotearoa.
