Emerging chapter

WHIS Oceania & Pacific

An emerging WHIS region across Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, building on the recent push to put Australia on the global social prescribing map.

WHIS Oceania & Pacific connects Australia, New Zealand, and Pacific Island partners — building on the 2025 Pacific Islands online session with the Global Social Prescribing Alliance (GSPA) and Commonwealth Pacific Climate Fund collaborators.

Focus: social prescribing in Australasian and Pacific contexts, climate-ready health systems, and bridging urban and remote communities. Recruiting volunteer chapter leads.
