Women in Health Network (WiHN) nurtures the next generation of women health leaders in New Zealand.WiHN is a community of health students and professionals who are committed to enabling all women to have a fair and fulfilling experience entering and working within the health sector. Although the health sector is a women-dominated field, gender disparities in the form of pay gaps, uneven opportunities for advancement, and unbalanced representation in leadership and decision-making negatively impact on societal equity and health sector efficiency.At WiHN, we see an overwhelming amount of potential in the wahine rangatahi set to enter the health workforce. We provide opportunities that will support New Zealand women in harnessing this potential and become leaders in their own right.WiHN achieves this in two ways:1. WiHN Events Programme: a variety of workshops, guest speaker events and networking opportunities throughout the year. All women welcome.2. WiHN Mentoring Programme: the matching up of 1st year students enrolled in Health Sciences and Biomedical Sciences with women studying their intended relative specialty degree (Health Sciences, Medicine, Nursing, Optometry or Pharmacy). All 1st year Health Sciences and Biomedical Sciences students at the University of Auckland welcome.Women of all ages in all health-related pursuits are welcome to join the network.
