Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to Jacqueline Beggs, a Professor in Biological Sciences at the University of Auckland, about the coming Kākāpō breeding season, and what a good season will mean for the critically endangered bird.
Producer Jasmine talked to Councillor Shane Henderson about safety on public transport and our beaches this summer, along with the opening of IKEA.
She spoke to Professor Chris Bullen to reflect on the success of the 15-year-long Smokefree Aotearoa campaign
And she spoke to Leonie Morris about the support needed for victims and professionals ahead of the implementation of the new anti-stalking legislation next May
Safety measures on public transport are of growing concern this week following the fatal and unprovoked attack that took place on route 76 in East Tāmkaki on Monday night.
Earlier this week there were also multiple critical incidents that occurred simultaneously across Auckland’s West Coast beaches and waterways, seeing an unusually high deployment of emergency services and surf lifesavers for this early in the summer.
Swedish home and furniture retailer Ikea opened in Sylvia Park a week ago today, drawing huge excitement for many.
Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Councillor Shane Henderson about these topics.
On May 26 next year, Aotearoa’s anti-stalking legislation comes into effect, but criminalisation is not the only action needed to support those experiencing stalking.
Earlier this week Auckland Women’s Centre released a guide of referral for victims of stalking that includes advice on reporting to police and accessing support services.
Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Leonie Morris, Project Lead for ‘Aotearoa Free From Stalking’, on the advocacy pathways needed to best address the issue of stalking ahead of the legislation implementation next year.
On Sunday, “Block the Ban” held a protest against the government’s decision to ban new prescriptions of puberty blockers for young people with gender dysphoria.
The United Nations’ committee for the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Racial Discrimination has released a report warning that New Zealand is at serious risk of weakening Māori rights.
And last week, the government rejected the recommended methane emissions targets.
This is despite officials warning against the government doing so, stating that lowering methane emissions targets could increase New Zealand’s contribution to global warming.
