Description

A new study by the University of Auckland has shown rising levels of burnout within the Pacific community.



The research is the first large-scale study to examine burnout within New Zealand-born Pasifika adults between the age of 18 to 65. 



The study found that 90 per cent of the adults experienced burnout, with almost 50 per cent experiencing burnout repeatedly. 



Producer Vihan spoke to University of Auckland Doctoral Candidate Asetoa Sam Pilisi about his study on burnout within New Zealand-born Pacific communities.
