While we wait for the 54th Parliament to take its shape, we’ve updated our coverage on the policies of the likely parties stepping in to lead.

Firmly apolitical we have collated the policies and promises relating to Tamariki | Children, Kaumātua | Older People, and our sector (health, community and social services) in one easy to find space.

Our aim is to provide clear, accessible and neutral information, in easily understood formats, based on:

  • published manifestos and press releases
  • answers received directly from parties

In addition, you can review the series of blogs we released pre-election, highlighting what they’re seeing in their communities right now and their hopeful solutions for positive change.

Here’s how you can connect with our mahi for Election 2023:

  • Policy Overview – dive deeper into the potential coalition party’s policies in relation to Tamariki | Children, Kaumātua | Older People, and Our Sector.
  • Commentary on the Coalition Policies – more detailed commentary from our Tīma on potential overlap, and potential challenges on policies for our tamariki and kaumātua
  • Innovative perspectives – pre-election blogs from our members and tīma highlighting fresh and hopeful approaches to tackle the most pressing issues they’re seeing in their communities.
  • Q&A with parties – read the pre-election questions we asked political parties about how they would support our kaumātua.
