Rarotonga – Cook Islands

Volunteer with RAD-AID South Pacific

Radiographer Colleagues at Rarotonga Hospital, Rarotonga – Cook Islands

Rarotonga is one of 15 islands of the Cook Islands, located in the South Pacific and home to nearly 75% of the country’s population. Despite the appeal of the island as a prime touristic destination, health disparities and climate change make Pacific island countries such as Rarotonga (Cook Islands) excessively vulnerable.
