Open to all

We open AUT Research Week 2024 with a special panel discussion from the Paramedicine Department.

AUT’s paramedicine researchers work closely with Hato Hone St John and other partners in the community to improve emergency responses in Aotearoa.

Hear about how these partnerships can help to save lives: from iwi-led research on improving outcomes for rural Māori, through to community-based first responder trials providing quick responses to cardiac arrest.

Refreshments will be provided. The event will also be livestreamed.

With a mana Māori Motuhake (by Māori for Māori) approach, this project partners AUT researchers with Te Rōpū Manawaora (a Māori advisory board in Kaikohe), and Hato Hone St John’s ambulance service. By combining local Mātauranga with academic research, this project allows community-based first responders to train in a course that incorporates Te Reo Māori, Te Ao Māori and Tikanga as well as the skills to save lives while ambulances are on the way
