Congratulations to Rochana Sheward, Belong Aotearoa Chief Executive for being appointed as a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the New Year Honour 2022.
Make sure you and your communities are enrolled to vote they can have their say in the 2020 General Election and referendums.
Belong Aotearoa is urging diverse voices to be informed and have their say on the Auckland Council Emergency Budget, amidst growing concerns that a lesser rate rise of 2.5% will greatly impact vulnerable communities through cuts to community services at a time of particular need.
The government announced a one-off pathway to residency for several temporary work visas however are excluding a large group of migrants. Migrant groups are urgently calling on the Government to include Recognised Seasonal Employer (RSE) workers in the new immigration policy, before it is released. RSEs contribute significantly to Aotearoa’s economy and wellbeing through the work that they have been employed to do.
