Last year we were proud to deliver the @AustraliaAwards Fellowship Program on behalf of @dfat, strengthening emergency care across Pacific Island Countries and Timor-Leste.

Through this initiative, @EmergEdu, together with @AlfredHealth and @MonashUni, welcomed emergency clinicians from across the region for immersive learning, clinical observerships, and leadership development in Australia. 🇦🇺🤝🌏

We are grateful for the collaboration and support of key partners including @acemonline, @spc_cps, the PNG Society for Emergency Medicine (PNGSEM), and Hospital Nacional Guido Valadares, as well as the many Australian host hospitals who made these placements possible.

Over the coming week we’ll share stories from the Fellows as they reflect on their experience, the skills they gained, and the connections they’ve made that will help transform emergency care in their communities.

Māori and Pacific peoples in Aotearoa die from heart disease 10+ years earlier than others. Some regions have no cardiologists. Only 50% get treatment in 60 minutes. We call for urgent, equity-led action. Every minute matters.
