Material from the All Right? mental wellbeing campaign, which relates specifically to Pasifika audiences. The collection includes photographs of events, posters, and other promotional material.
One of the major findings in our research with Canterbury’s Pacific communities is that Pacific women are the heartbeat of the family.In post-quake Canterbury Pacific women have played a significant role in their communities, creating strong networks and support structures and working to keep Pacific traditions alive with strong family and church networks.
All Right? research has also highlighted that some young Pacific people born in New Zealand can struggle with their sense of identity. In response to this All Right? launched the I am... Identity project, designed to celebrate identity and its importance to Pacific youth and their wellbeing.
