AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Pacific health trends: New analysis on Pacific life expectancy says the region’s average has climbed to 68.8 years (from 52.7 in 1960), with Solomon Islands moving from below the regional average to above it—while Naoero’s gains are described as modest, even falling to the lowest position in 2023. Cook Islands NCD care: The WHO highlights World Patient Safety Day with a focus on safer care for non-communicable diseases, pointing to high rates of hypertension, smoking, alcohol use and low physical activity in Cook Islands survey data. Niue wellness & community: Niue Honey’s story shows how the island is building a bee sanctuary and reviving local beekeeping—an indirect boost to health and wellbeing through food and environment. Regional health policy debate: A Niuean/Tongan/Māori commentator challenges New Zealand’s MAPAS medical admissions approach, arguing selection should prioritise capability over ethnicity while still meeting Pacific health needs. Pacific travel access: Labour’s proposed visa-waiver expansion for Pacific Islands Forum citizens could make it easier for families—including those in Niue—to travel for key health-related visits and family care.
