Reflecting on the past, embracing the future🌟

Last week, our Senior Executive Leadership Team, Board and representatives from several partner organisations came together to review our Strategic Plan 2024-29 and assess progress so far.

It was an amazing opportunity to reflect on how far we’ve come together, celebrate our achievements and explore opportunities for the future to continue strengthening primary healthcare in the NT.

Ongoing dialogue and strong partnerships are essential to delivering on the vision of our Strategic Plan - and to shaping what comes next.

Today we celebrated Harmony Week by coming together over food, culture and connection! 🧡

Our team shared dishes from their own cultural backgrounds, creating a spread that reflected the diversity of our organisation.

It was a great opportunity to learn more about each other, spark conversations and celebrate what makes our community so unique.

Happy Harmony Week everyone! 🌍

Today, on National Close the Gap Day, we’re reflecting on the role we all play in reducing health inequalities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Our Board plays a critical role in guiding NT PHN’s strategic direction, and we are proud that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders make up the majority of its membership, ensuring community voices remain at the centre of our decisions.

To facilitate reflection, two Board members, Allison Grierson and Leeanne Caton, alongside Shannon Cowdrey-Fong from our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Branch, brought together staff from across the Territory for an interactive online learning session.

The session reinforced that Closing the Gap is a shared responsibility, recognising that while health remains a key focus, meaningful progress requires genuine partnerships between all sectors that impact social and emotional wellbeing.
