Our Whakaaro
Welcome to Collaborative Aotearoa, a national membership organisation uniting primary and community healthcare organisations and dedicated partners in the pursuit of equitable health and wellbeing for whānau and communities across Aotearoa. Our collective mission is to ensure that everyone, no matter where they are, has access to high-quality, culturally responsive healthcare that supports healthier futures for all.
Collaborative Aotearoa extends its impact through a robust membership network while also providing specialised fee-for-service consultancy to primary and community care organisations, Hauora providers, and general practices. We work closely with our partners to build solutions that are responsive to community needs and drive equity at every level of care.
As recognised leaders in primary care model development, innovation, and service improvement, we are deeply committed to expanding our reach to bring transformative change to healthcare delivery across Aotearoa. By fostering collaboration, building strong relationships, and embracing innovative approaches, we are continually exploring ways to uplift primary and community care services and support providers in delivering exceptional care to their communities.
Our Team
We are a small, diverse team with decades of experience in primary and community care. We are experienced in large scale transformation, leveraging from our network of clinicians, health professional and lived experience advisors. We deliver at scale using an emergent approach, paced by our network of primary care providers and the communities that we serve in partnership with their people.
Collaborative Lived Experience Advisors Rōpū (CLEAR)
The purpose (aim, intention: our ‘why’) of the Collaborative Lived Experience Advisors Rōpū (CLEAR) is to contribute to governance and operational strategy, offering a lived experience perspective so that organisational outcomes and priorities remain (and positively progress) whānau-centred decision-making. The advisors will have a direct partnership and relationship with the Board of Trustees Collaborative Aotearoa.
