Welcome from the Acting Chief
Executive, Ron Dunham
HEALTHY FUTURES FOR PACIFIC PEOPLES
On behalf of the CMDHB, welcome to our second LotuMoui Symposium!
We are pleased to be able to bring to you an exciting and inspirational
line up of keynote speakers and workshop themes. We are especially
pleased to bring to you a focus on young people through a stream of
workshops that will run parallel to the main Symposium.
LotuMoui is an important programme to help us realise the vision of
Healthy Futures for all our communities – in particular, Pacific people
living in our District. LotuMoui looks forward to the next phase of
expansion where, as part of our strategic objectives, we aim to:
• Increase the number of churches involved in LotuMoui from 50 to 80
within the next 3 years; and
• Implement the LotuMoui Operational Plan that contains important objectives about improving the
lifestyles and health of Pacific people.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank the many people who helped us put this programme together
and in particular our Minister Steering Committee:
• Reverend Setaita Veikune
• Pastor Paora Teaukura
• Reverend William Hakaoro
• Pastor Tiatia Peseta
• Reverend Mosese Ueleni
• Reverend Maua Sola
• Reverend Uea Tuleia
• Pisila Foliaki
As well as our Youth Steering Committee:
• Meleka Pou Poasa
• Isaac Otto
• Moses Filipo
• Anori Salatielu
• Sam Marii
• Nikau Mii
• Danelle Maunsell
• Gallagher Hausi
• Bismark Salatielu
• Decca Salatielu
We would not have been able to put together such an exciting programme were it not for your ideas,
time and effort to make this a success.
I wish you well for your work at the Symposium and look forward to the visions and sharing that will
emerge.
Ron Dunham
Acting Chief Executive
