Our mission is to advance the health and wellbeing of children and young people throughout the Pacific region by strengthening paediatric care, supporting professional growth, and advocating for equity in child health.

We achieve this by:

• Facilitating professional development and peer learning opportunities

• Supporting research and knowledge-sharing relevant to Pacific child health needs

• Hosting the Pacific Paediatric Association Conference every two years, a regional gathering that strengthens networks, shares innovations, and celebrates Pacific identity

• Advocating for policies and programmes that ensure equitable health outcomes

• Fostering a strong network of paediatric and child health professionals across our island nations

The Association plays a vital role in addressing the unique health challenges faced by Pacific children. Through our bi-yearly conference, training, partnerships, and regional initiatives, we strive to improve healthcare delivery, enhance medical education, and contribute to the holistic development of our children and young people.

Together, with alofa and commitment, we work for a healthier Pacific future.
