About the scholarship
The Va'a o Tautai – Centre for Pacific Health | POPO Pathway Scholarship was established in 2023 to encourage Pacific students to undertake study in Health Sciences and enable success towards undergraduate degree programmes. Pacific students bring unique cultural perspectives and insights to the field of Health Sciences. Their understanding of cultural norms, values, and practices can contribute to more culturally sensitive and effective healthcare delivery within their communities and others.
