The Advancing Women in Medicine Dinner is grounded in uplifting, encouraging and supporting women in emergency medicine - and we recognise that meaningful progress happens when everyone is part of the conversation.

This dinner is an opportunity to listen, learn, connect and actively support a culture where women can thrive and lead in emergency medicine. Allies are not just invited - they are essential.
The NZEM Network is a collaborative research network for acute care in Aotearoa New Zealand. Our vision is that we will have a world-leading, patient-centred emergency care research network which will improve emergency care for all, so that people coming to any emergency department in the country will have access to the same world-class emergency care.
You are welcome to join our research network meeting for a chance to meet EM researchers and hear about current and future EM research in Aotearoa New Zealand.
