The Asian Network Inc (TANI) is thrilled to invite you to our fourth session of the Primary Prevention Series (Aug–Dec 2025) as part of the Changemaker Programme (Feb-Dec 2025).
In this November session, we’ll unpack the third driver to family violence against women and children, explore how rigid gender roles and stereotyped mindset on masculinity could cause violence against women and harm men as well, and how we can challenge them and promote healthier alternatives.

The workshop is not a sit & learn lecture, rather it is highly interactive, engaging, and designed for YOU to be part of the change. You will have fun!
Whether you’re a parent, university student, health professional, or simply passionate about preventing family violence in our Asian communities – you’re warmly encouraged to register and bring friends to come along.

🌟 Thank you to everyone who joined our Health Talk on aphasia at Glenfield Library 🌟

A special thanks to our speakers for sharing their expertise and personal experiences. Debbie’s insights truly helped attendees understand aphasia and practical ways to support those living with this condition.

We were delighted to have almost 30 participants attend the talk, receiving wonderful feedback, all highlighting how helpful, inspiring the session was.

Some feedback from attendees:
💬 "It was very helpful to gain some knowledge about elderly aphasia and learnt how to prevent stroke by use healthy lifestyle."
💬 "From today’s session, I gained a better understanding of what is aphasia. It reminded me of the importance of maintaining good health and taking care of ourselves to prevent illness. At the same time, we need to show more care, patience and encouragement to people living with aphasia."

We hope to bring more sessions like this in the future to empower our community with knowledge and practical support! 💛

🌏 Upper Harbour Ethnic Peoples Plan has officially launched! 🌏

The Asian Network Inc. (TANI) is incredibly proud to lead the development of the ‘Upper Harbour Ethnic Peoples Plan (UHEPP) 2025–2030’, the first comprehensive strategy designed to support and empower ethnic communities across Upper Harbour.

Over the past one and a half years, TANI worked closely with the Upper Harbour Local Board, Auckland Council, local NGOs and hundreds of community members to ensure the plan truly reflects the voices, hopes, and lived experiences of local ethnic residents.

Using inclusive community development methods, from stakeholder mapping, qualitative and quantitative interviews/surveys and community conversation workshops help shape this roadmap for inclusion, wellbeing, and belonging.
The launch of the plan on 21 September 2025 was a joyous celebration, attended by ethnic community leaders, members of the Upper Harbour Ethnic Advisory Circle, and the local board. It was wonderful to see a great uptake from broader ethnic communities and residents of Upper Harbour Local Board joined together in celebration of this milestone!

The Ethnic Advisory Circle’s inspiring 13 representatives from diverse cultural backgrounds will continue guiding the plan’s implementation alongside Harbour Sport, who will lead its delivery.

Our heartfelt thanks to the Upper Harbour Local Board for championing this project, and to everyone involved: Auckland Council, Harbour Sport, our amazing volunteers, and community members who generously shared their insights and experiences. Your passion, stories, and wisdom made this plan possible!

TANI Korero Recap: Digestive Health Insights 🍎

Our TAN online support group korero had a fantastic session on October 17th! We had 34 attendees and their families join us on Zoom for a great learning experience.

Our guest speaker, Mr. Fang, a former expert in gastrointestinal surgery now studying Health & Wellbeing at Unitec, shared valuable, professional insights. He covered the digestive system, common conditions, and gave practical tips for prevention and management through a healthy lifestyle.

The discussion was lively! Participants actively engaged with questions on topics like Helicobacter pylori, and a few attendees bravely shared their personal journeys, noting the benefits of combining Western and traditional Chinese medicine for issues like chronic gastritis.

It was a highly successful session—a perfect blend of professional knowledge and community support. A big thank you to everyone who made it so informative!

Empowering Our Community with Digital Health Knowledge! 💻📱

We had a wonderful gathering at Howick Library for our Health Talk on 'Digital Health Literacy and Telehealth Service'! 🎉
We were so pleased that over 30 community members attended, and the feedback has been fantastic!
