Tackling poverty is an ever increasingly pressing problem in Aotearoa New Zealand. The impact falls disproportionately on Māori and other groups affected by structural disadvantage. This situation does not live up to our national self-image, nor to our obligations under Te Tiriti. Our panellists have both a wealth of knowledge and ideas about the causes and solutions, and a depth of practical experience in working with those affected and working for structural change. They will start by outlining the situation: the levels and kinds of poverty and who is most affected by it; and why poverty is a Te Tiriti issue. They will then share and discuss their thoughts on the structural causes and on possible structural solutions.
