Puatala at the MSD Employment Expo: A Step Towards New Opportunities

The Puatala team recently had the privilege of attending the MSD Employment Expo held at Kaute Fale in Kirikiriroa. The event created an energising space for connection, learning, and community engagement, bringing together people eager to explore new employment opportunities.

At Puatala, we’re passionate about creating pathways for growth and collaboration, and the Employment Expo reflected just how powerful shared spaces can be. It was encouraging to see individuals, organisations, and community groups come together with a shared focus on building a stronger and more prosperous future.

Throughout the day, the Expo highlighted the value of collective effort in creating meaningful change. From engaging with local organisations to learning through workshops and conversations, every interaction reinforced the strength that comes from community connection.

A sincere thank you to everyone involved in making the event such a success — from the organisers to the attendees. We’re excited about the next steps in continuing to support employment pathways and look forward to working alongside partners and communities to help create new opportunities for people across Aotearoa.
