BRANCHES

The Public Health Association of New Zealand (PHANZ) is the professional organisation for public health practitioners and researchers in New Zealand.

The PHANZ has regional branches that serve as a support network and ‘voice’ for their area. These branches help connect public health professionals across the country, facilitate networking and organise regional events and activities.

There may be other branches representing smaller territories or specific groups within the field of public health. This is dependent on the geographical and demographic distribution of public health professionals.
