Networks
Networks were created by the Executive in 2022 to support the interest of our members across the motu. A Network can be suggested by any Society member who has an area of gastroenterology they are passionate in and wish to advance mahi that fits into one of the key objectives of the Society's Strategic Plan.
Once a network is agreed a call for members will take place. Networks are open to all members of the Society, and by invitation, gastroenterology whānau from outside the Society can share in the network mahi and call to action.
Networks are governed by the NZSG Executive.
Currently the Society has networks in:
The Neuro-Gastroenterology is made of members of the Society who work together to promote work in the gastroenterology community that focuses on the relationship between the nervous and digestive systems.
Will work on improving the diet and lifestyle for the patients our members and other health professionals care for.
The NZSG H. pylori Network connects clinicians and researchers across Aotearoa New Zealand with an interest in Helicobacter pylori management, research, and service improvement. The network supports collaboration, data sharing, and the expansion of the Aotearoa arm of the World Helicobacter pylori Treatment Registry, with the goal of improving eradication success, antimicrobial stewardship, and equity of outcomes for Māori and Pacific peoples.
Find resources at Practitioner Resources | New Zealand Society Of Gastroenterology under H Pylori Information. This section provides guidance, tools, and research updates to support best practice in H. pylori diagnosis and management in Aotearoa New Zealand. Resources will include registry information, testing and treatment guidance, and materials to support quality improvement initiatives.
If you are considering a network for members of the Society to join and focus their shared interests on, share your idea with the NZSG Executive by e-mailing office@nzsg.org.nz
