Disabilities come in myriad forms, but it is often how institutions and society engage with them that shapes the limitations they pose.
For this week's Get Action, I spoke to JT from Touch Compass on their petition ‘Say YES to “Access” #YesToAccessNZ | Words Shape World’, aiming to encourage a rethink of the way we conceptualise disability as a society by changing how we talk about it.
If you would like to learn more about this petition or sign your name to it, you can find its Action Station page here.
Hayden is back up in the studio to chat with Rosetta and Milly for What's The Buzz! Today, they talk all things etomidate - aka 'space vapes'. Whakarongo mai nei!
Recent tensions within Te Pāti Māori, which exploded into the light last month, have culminated in the expulsion of two rogue MPs: Mariameno Kapa-Kingi of Te Tai Tokerau and Tākuta Ferris of Te Tai Tonga.
Despite this, much remains unresolved, and controversy lingers over the preceding actions, the manner in which they were communicated online, and how the expulsion was handled by the party leadership.
Wednesday Wire Producer Manny spoke with Jason Mika, Professor of Māori Management at the University of Auckland, to get his perspective on the expulsions.
During an interview with the ‘Morning Report’, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon confirmed that orders for the homeless in Auckland’s CBD to move on were “definitely a consideration”. He later stated, that “Aucklanders don’t feel safe going into the central city”, and both Central government and Auckland Council are considering how they can move homeless people out of the CBD ahead of summer.
This follows previous reports that the Government was considering a rough sleeping ban for central Auckland.
This news comes as Stats NZ released their annual unemployment figures this week. The results show that national unemployment has risen to a nine-year high at 5.3%, with the New Zealand youth taking most of the damage.
For our weekly catchup with The Green Party, Wednesday Wire Max spoke to MP Ricardo Menendez March, to discuss the new unemployment figures released last week. They also spoke about the Government’s new action plan to combat methamphetamine use.
But first, they discussed what The Green Party thought about the Government’s plan to decrease homelessness in the Auckland CBD
In an article on Newsroom, John Morgan, Head of the School Critical Studies and Education at the University of Auckland, discusses his belief that we are seeing a collapse in the country’s curriculum accord.

News and Editorial Director Joel spoke to Morgan about the history of the curriculum accords in the country and why we are seeing changes in this space.
