Should Aotearoa be Doing More for Refugees Fleeing Humanitarian Crises? w/ Bernard Sama: Novermber 6, 2023

Bernard Sama is a doctoral candidate at the University of Auckland Faculty of Education and Social Work, and has recently received Te Whainga i Te Tika Award for Social Justice for his advocacy work for refugees in Aotearoa. Upon receiving the award he has expressed a need for Aotearoa to do more to support refugees, particularly by increasing our intake of refugees fleeing humanitarian crises and conflict.

Rosetta had a kōrero with Bernard to discuss the future of refugees in Aotearoa under a new government. They also spoke about what New Zealand should be doing to better facilitate the evacuation of civilians from Gaza fleeing violence as a result of the Israeli Palestine conflict.
