My guest on this episode is Cassandra Treadwell, Co-founder and CEO, So They Can www.sotheycan.org and Co-founder, CEO, Essence of Humanity www.theessenceofhumanity.com So They Can is a not for profit organisation committed to empowering children living in poverty through education. Cassandra's career background is medico legal, gaining her masters degree in medical law and ethics from King's College, London University. While she has enjoyed living overseas, she chose to come back to Wanaka, New Zealand, to raise her 4 children in the same nurturing community she grew up in. She also loves living in New Zealand for the running, tramping, skiing and general outdoor lifestyle it enables. Having spent a year in Argentina on a student exchange when she was 16, Cass spent time at an orphanage and was confronted for the first time with poverty in the developing world. The injustice affected her greatly, and sculpted her future career choices and charity involvement. As a new mother this empathy took her back to the communities of East Africa that she had become acquainted with while travelling, and a drive to improve the lives of some of the world's most impoverished children whose families suffered deprivation and displacement due to political violence. Working in Africa now Cass gains so much from the people she works with, as she describes in her Tedx talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3qCejfLqk8&t=102s. The community has taught her to be grateful for what she has got rather than focus on what she has not got, the children have helped her to live in the present and enjoy the simple pleasures of life, and the communities of Kenya and Tanzania have taught her the value of Ubuntu (I am because of you) and the importance of global balance. Cass was honoured to be nominated for the 2015 New Zealander of the Year and to be one of the final 10 people that were considered for this prestigious award. In 2018 she was a finalist in the New Zealand Women of Influence Awards.   This is a conversation that I will carry with me for a long time. It's not often I find myself brought to tears (of empathy, inspiration and hope) in an interview. Cass is more than an inspiration, I think she's a role model for what an individual can do when they allow themselves to feel empathy for our fellow human beings.   Cass speaks with such humility but there are some big truth bombs in this interview. Here are some of the things we explore in our conversation   Cass introduces us to the African philosophy of “Ubuntu” (a Swahili word) – I am because of you; how our personal wellbeing is deeply connected to the wellbeing of others Cass shares the outcomes of the work of So They Can, supporting 33,000 children across 47 schools plus alongside some of their other programs, including microfinance for women, impacting 45,000 people overall Cass shares one story after another story, bringing to life lessons in Ubuntu, through the classroom of Africa She highlights the abundance of emotional wealth in these communities despite the lack of material wealth and what this teaches her She shares the compelling story of how So They Can started – after seeing a movie – Hotel Rwanda She takes us on a journey to the IDP (Internal Displaced Placement) camp she first visited, housing Kenyan refugees and how she responded to their request to her to set up a school She shares her back story and what took her to Africa in the first place, looking for a project to support  Cass shares the unique model behind So They Can, pairing an ex-pat with a local, taking the time to understand what is needed from both outsiders and the people on the ground to bring mutual understanding to the process Cass talks powerfully about her mission to change the definition of charity from the idea of the great white saviour to the truth that it is a reciprocal exchange and partnership of emotional and material wealth” Cass shares and invites listeners to get involved in So They Can's latest campaign “One in a million” – asking ppl to give just $1 a month.  She highlights what success of this campaign will enable – moving from 47 schools – 33,000 children to 500 schools empowering 400,000 children She shares that Neil Finn from Crowded House, who is one of So They Can's ambassadors – has written a song to launch one in a million Connect with Cassandra and So They Can here: email: cassandra@sotheycan.org Website: http://www.sotheycan.org/ Join the 1 in a million campaign here https://1-in-a-million.raisely.com/

Brilliant, hardworking and creative, women architects have made many significant contributions to the built environment, creativity and community of Aotearoa New Zealand. A ground-breaking new book, Making Space, tells the story of women making space for themselves in a male-dominated profession while designing architectural, landscape and urban spaces over a century. Edited by Elizabeth Cox and written by 30 women architects, architectural historians and academics, the book's bold, vivid chapters shine light on hundreds of remarkable women, including many whose careers have until now been lost to the historical record. Elizabeth and authors Divya Purushotham and Mary-Jane Duffy discuss the many challenges and triumphs of women architects in Aotearoa. These monthly Public History Talks are a collaboration between the Alexander Turnbull Library and Manatū Taonga Ministry for Culture and Heritage. Recorded live on 2 November 2022.

We finally catch up with Jessica Green hot off of her win at the New Zealand Women's Amateur Championships in Otago

What an amazing game the New Zealand Women's Rugby Team played on Saturday night - beating England 34-31 in the World Cup final. Did you notice, then, that I didn't call them the Black Ferns? That's because I don't think they should be called that anymore. I think they have well-and-truly earned the right to be known as the Women's All Blacks. We've had the Men's All Blacks since the early 1900s. Since 2012, we've had the Maori All Blacks (originally known as the New Zealand Maori team) and, more recently, we've had the All Blacks Sevens. So I think it would make perfect sense for the women's national team to be re-named the Women's All Blacks. I tested my idea at home yesterday and it, pretty much, got the thumbs down. Which surprised me, actually. “Why would the Black Ferns want to be associated with the All Blacks?” is how I would summarise the response. And, yes, give me any game the New Zealand women have played during this World Cup tournament over any All Blacks game in recent memory. This morning's game against Scotland is a case in point.  How refreshing was it on Saturday night - and throughout the World Cup tournament - to see the women passing the ball around the back row when it seems all the All Blacks can do is kick it into touch time and time and time again. It just highlights, doesn't it, how boring they've become. So I see what my focus group yesterday was getting at, asking why the women would want to be lumped in with the All Blacks. When I was watching that game on Saturday night, I remembered how the All Blacks used to play like the Black Ferns. Taking all sorts of risks. Carlos Spencer, for example, almost throwing the ball away behind him - hoping there was someone there to catch it. And most times, there was. The All Blacks are nothing like that these days. Nevertheless, rugby honchos still bang on about the All Blacks being the number one rugby brand in the world, don't they? Which might have stacked up a few years back when the All Blacks were genuinely exciting to watch. And when they pretty much smashed any team that took them on. I remember watching them play Scotland at Carisbrook in Dunedin back in the 90s, and the scoreline getting so ridiculously in favour of the All Blacks that I just wanted them to let Scotland get a few points on the board. But they're not exciting anymore. And they are certainly not dominant. They're just boring to watch - and, at best, they scrape through games that - not all that long ago - they would've won convincingly. And not only do I think that the women's team deserve to be part of the All Blacks brand, I think they could actually be its saviour. Because they're the ones on top of the rugby world at the moment - unlike their male counterparts. So this isn't just about recognising the women. It's about utilising their magic to bring some much-needed shine back to the All Blacks brand. Supposedly, the greatest rugby brand in the world. And, surely, if it's good enough to have the Sevens team known as the All Blacks and the Maori team known as the All Blacks - then it's more than good enough to have the women's team known as the All Blacks too. As I've said to my kids time and time again, women's sport is the future - particularly when it comes to attracting sponsorship money. And I can see a day coming when the women's team will be the golden ticket for New Zealand Rugby, as corporate sponsors fall over themselves to support women's sport. That is the future. Which is why I'm convinced that, if New Zealand Rugby wants to make the most of that spectacular win on Saturday night, it needs to ditch the Black Ferns brand and make the women's team part of the All Blacks stable. The Men's All Blacks. The Maori All Blacks. The Sevens All Blacks. And the Women's All Blacks. But we can't stop at a name-change. New Zealand Rugby also needs to start pouring a lot more money into women's rugby. Investing in the national women's team AND investing in girls rugby too. Because how many times do we get girls playing ripper rugby but then, as they get older, they find there are issues getting coaches for girls' rugby and they get disillusioned and move on to other sports. So I think New Zealand Rugby needs to pay a lot more than just lip service to women' s rugby. And, for me, that would be changing the Black Ferns name to the Women's All Blacks. And ring-fencing funding specifically for girls' and women's rugby. Both of those things make perfect sense. Well, they do to me.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We love a new book, and in this episode we talk to Elizabeth Cox, architectural historian and editor of Making Space: A History of New Zealand Women in Architecture. Elizabeth shared many of the stories Making Space tells, and a few more, in a generous chat with us last week. Beautifully designed, it tells over one hundred years of stories, illuminating many not previously in the historical record.

Ep. 83    Traci HoupapaTraci Houpapa is a company director and business advisor from New Zealand. But a simple scratching of the surface reveals a unique and inspiring story. Her early life influences could well have something to do with her Maori father who was very active in campaigns to return properties back into Maori management in the 1980s. As to her own career, she was advised to experience a wide range of occupations after high school before settling on a career... and that education was essential to her success. She sits on numerous Boards an Foundations.  She is, amongst many other things, chair of the Federation of Maori Authorities, a Chartered Fellow of the NZ Institute of Directors, an advisor to Maori, Government, public and private sector organisations and has an unwavering commitment to advancing the interests of indigenous women in New Zealand. In the 2012 Queen's Birthday Honours, she was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit, for services to business and Maori. In 2015, she won the Board and Management award at the New Zealand Women of Influence Awards. In 2016 she named as one of the BBC's 100 Most Influential Women in the World for that year. She has some great advice for life and career. And an optimism that we're heading in the right direction on a number of fronts including gender bias and racism. 

In this episode of Midlife Down Under, Lisa and Sian talk to the amazing Nici Wickes about her passion for food, cold water swimming and the contentment of living a single life. For years Nici was the creator, tester and stylist behind recipes featured in the New Zealand Women's Weekly and is still a regular contributor on radio and television. These days you'll usually find her in her gorgeous wee beach house where she continues to create the Instagram videos she started during lockdown and which led to her new book A Quiet Kitchen.

Dr Farah Palmer captained the Black Ferns to three Rugby World Cup wins, has a PHD in sociology and was the first woman to be appointed to the NZ Rugby board. She is an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit, has been inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame and The New Zealand Women's Provincial Championship was renamed the Farah Palmer Cup in her Honour. She currently works as an Associate Dean at Massey university where her research revolves around race, gender and leadership issues in sport.

The Heath Minister is "dreaming" if he thinks it's not a crisis. That from one of 900 doctors who completed a survey by the New Zealand Women in Medicine Charitable Trust, that found the overwhelming majority believe the system is in crisis. Last night in an open letter to the Prime Minister the trust warned Aotearoa is at risk of a catastrophic collapse of the healthcare workforce". Still, Health Minister Andrew Little refuses to use the word "crisis". That has left many feeling ignored, as well as undermined and under pressure. Three doctors who took part in the survey gave Checkpoint their diagnosis of healthcare in this country and a taste of life and death on the frontline.

It was a sobering listen this morning hearing Kerre Woodham's callers list crisis after crisis after crisis in the Health and Education sectorsIt was nothing we didn't already know, we've been talking about this for decades.A lack of funding for training, l lack of funding for pay, iniquitous pay relativity which sees junior engineers receiving more money than a junior doctor for far less responsibility and hours. We set ourselves up for failure. And we've been doing it for years.It comes on the same day the New Zealand Women in Medicine survey of 900 clinicians is released.93.5 per cent saying we are in crisis with our healthcare workforce and with a conclusion that “we are at risk of a catastrophic collapse of the healthcare workforce".These are big structural problems that will be fixed over a time scale of decades, not years and the Government is putting aside billions for the process.But in between the big bad news you hear little stories of stupidity that could be fixed quickly and relatively cheaply.The physiotherapist who wants to return to the workforce after semi-retirement to help with the backlog being billed for her practicing certificate. A return to practice application fee is $713.60 and if it's sent to moderation another fee of $300 and then you pay the yearly fee of $500.That's 1500 bucks before you get a chance to earn a single cent.It's the same for teachers.Teachers' registration fees have more than doubled, with a three-year practising certificate increasing from $220.80 to $464.37.Again, this is a barrier to returning teachers and let's just remind ourselves that we are 1000 teachers short right now. Why are we making things harder for these people to come back to help?With a Government throwing around cash on bureaucratic reorganisations of health and water that will take decades for any improvements to kick in, you wonder why for a minimal investment they don't just subsidise the registrations to get more staff back in months.Or is that just too much like common senseSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Politicians either love the word "crisis" - or they hate it.Generally, it's opposition politicians who love it and it's the ones in government who can't bring themselves to say it.Remember all the dancing-on-a-pinhead the Government did earlier this year over the cost of living crisis? It was like pulling hens' teeth getting them to admit that. And we're seeing it again today - this time it's health.The New Zealand Women in Medicine Charitable Trust has surveyed 900 doctors working across 30 different areas of medicine. And 93.5 percent of them say there is definitely a health crisis and 6.3 percent say there is probably a crisis.Add them together and you get 99.8 percent. That leaves 0.2 percent who must think everything is tickety boo.And so in response to the survey findings, the New Zealand Women in Medicine Charitable Trust wrote to the Prime Minister yesterday telling her that the health system is at significant risk.Here's one of the things they said in the letter to the PM yesterday: “The results indicate that we are at risk of a catastrophic collapse of the healthcare workforce.” And it was signed by 923 doctors working at GP clinics and hospitals.So, following that, Health Minister Andrew Little comes on with Mike this morning - and Mike asks him “is there a crisis?”. And here's what he says: “As Minister, I've been asked to declare probably half a dozen crises in the health sector in the two years I've been Minister. It is under pressure, management are doing the best they can with what they can and the frontline healthcare workforce are doing a terrific job in the circumstances. But we will get through this.”And Andrew Little is right in some respects. We will get through this. Unless Vladimir Putin drops a nuclear bomb on us, we'll get through it. Just like we get through a lot of things.But talk about falling on deaf ears.93.5 percent of doctors say there is definitely a health crisis and 6.3 percent say there is probably a crisis. And we get the Health Minister responding by saying the healthcare system “is under pressure” and “struggling to keep up. But refusing to say it's a crisis.And not just despite the numbers and stats from the survey, but also despite comments like this that one doctor made when they took part in the survey. “The system is beyond a crisis. I feel sorry for new grads coming into this crisis. It will break many.”And that's the language a St John's paramedic was using when he spoke on the TV news last night.He said he was leaving because he was broken. Another St John's person was saying the health crisis is meaning elderly who fall in their bathrooms at night are being stuck there for hours before an ambulance can turn up.This is because it's taking so long to get people admitted to our overcrowded hospitals that the ambulance people are finding themselves having to stay at the hospitals much longer than they should - and not back out on the road responding to the next call.But “we'll get through this”, according to the Health Minister. And yes we will get through this, but is like it or lump it really the response our doctors and other medical professionals deserve from our government? In particular, the Minister responsible for the health system.It seems that, when it suits, the Government is more than happy to tell us that it listens to advice from medical professionals. How many times have we heard that line trotted out over the last few years?How then, can it suddenly not be listening to the medical experts when they're saying that the health system they work in, is in crisis? Actually writing to the Prime Minister telling her and Andrew Little just that.I can only imagine how betrayed they must be feeling today, hearing the Health Minister fob it off like he has.They're saying things like: “I don't have the words to describe how awful work has become. I am yet to see...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The nation’s health system is failing women, often making them feel like their illness is a figment of their imagination. Women are sometimes suffering for years longer than they should be, and this oversight ends up costing the healthcare system millions of extra dollars. So how did we get to this point? And more importantly, how do we improve women’s healthcare? Today, NZ Herald health reporter Emma Russell joins Damien to talk about how women are suffering within a broken system.

Today we are very lucky to speak to Tia Potae, the winner of the inaugural Primary Industries award at the 2021 New Zealand Women of Influence Awards. Tia is based in the sunny Coromandel, but hails from Milton at the bottom of the South Island. The Potae name is extremely well known in shearing circles, with her grandfather's brother George Potae winning the Golden Shears in 1969. Tia herself has been in the shearing industry all her life, representing New Zealand in woolhandling in 2005 and 2013. Tia has a huge list of achievements and is truly a champion of rural communities. Tia is a Whānau Ora navigator at Tokomairiro Waiora and won the award for supporting shearers and their families through the challenges of Covid-19. During the 2020 lockdown, she developed an online programme for wool, forestry and fishing industry workers who found it difficult to access services after hours. She also helped workers access the Wage Subsidy Scheme.Tia is also a rural navigator for Tokomairiro Waiora, a Kaupapa Māori Health Service providing Whānau Ora services in South Otago. Her rural navigator programme was a response to a Te Pūtahitanga o Te Waipounamu 2019 survey of wool harvesters which found they needed better access to health and social services.And if you thought she couldn't possibly do anymore, she also has a small business, Taki Toru Woolshed Services, where she runs her own training programme. If you enjoyed this episode, feel free to visit our Instagram, Facebook, and website, or even become a member! www.ruralwomennz.nz

New Zealand Women's Institutes and the Hawke's Bay woman who founded the movement, Jerome Spencer, are celebrated in a new exhibition. In fact it's a double celebration as the exhibition called For Home and Country also marks the reopening of the MTG Hawke's Bay, after the museum and gallery's closure at the end of last year for remedial work. The exhibition's guest curator is Emeritus Professor Kay Morris Matthews, who's written a biography of Jerome Spencer - known as Bessie to her family and friends - to mark the NZWI's centenary. The first Institute at Rissington in Hawke's Bay was the start of a large network of them around the country. They helped rural women, who often felt isolated, to meet, talk, produce handcrafts and have fun. Lynn Freeman talks with the Museum's Director Laura Vodanovich, and first asked why it had to close its doors. For Home and Country opens at the MTG Hawke's Bay on Saturday July 24. Kay Morris Matthews' book is called Lifting Horizons, Anna Elizabeth Jerome Spencer, a biography.

Our guest today is Nicolai Morris, strength and conditioning specialist with High Performance Sport, New Zealand.  Nicolai is the lead S&C with the New Zealand Women’s (Field) Hockey Team (Blacksticks) as well as coaching an international elite high jumper.  From Nicolai’s athletic career origins as a swimmer, she has honed her eye for movement through a wide range of land and sea-based sports and athletic situations. Nicolai has previously worked with New Zealand Rowing in the elite and U23/Junior pathways as well as, multitude of sports in her role as strength and conditioning specialist at Sydney University including swimming, track and field, rugby, rugby 7’s, water polo and soccer. She also worked as the Head strength and conditioning coach for the Australian Beach Handball team and the NSW Women’s State of Origin team. Nicolai is a ASCA Level 2, Pro-Scheme Elite coach, and a Masters in Strength and Conditioning with over a decade of coaching experience. We talk on this podcast often about going beyond simply looking at, and emphasizing weightlifting maxes for athletic performance improvement; moving into some of the finer biomechanical details of speed, jumping and athletic technique.  At the roots of all technical ability in sport is baseline human ability to sense and coordinate ourselves in space.  Although we have had good conversation on the importance of developing body control and coordination in regards to training children, it’s not often we speak on how to integrate gymnastic and coordinative ability into training with mature athletes, despite the fact that there are so many “poor movers” on this level, whose base line functioning often leaves them pre-disposed for injury. On today’s podcast, Nicolai speaks about her transition as a swimmer to strength coach, as well as a deep-dive into the role that gymnastics and rough-housing work plays in the developmental process of her athletes.  She also speaks on building buy-in and belief from her athletes (and team management/head sports coaches) from a female perspective, and we close out the show with a brief chat on blood flow restriction training (BFR).

She works across the public, private and NGO sectors, in governance and strategy, marketing and business development, and communications and stakeholder engagement. Ziena is a keynote speaker, facilitator, MC and commentator on topics as diverse as economic development, international and vocational education, Asia business, leadership, diversity and inclusion, crisis management, nation branding, and politics. She is the co-founder of myyodaa, a mobile app that's like an ‘Airbnb for yoga and meditation' - connecting students and teachers around the globe, via personalised, live, one-to-one video sessions – wherever they are, whenever they want, and at a price they choose. As a young(ish) Kiwi Fiji Indian woman, Ziena identifies as much with Asia as she does with the Pacific.

Every season I do a solo episode. I'm in contemplative mood again thinking about the challenging world we're living in right now, and how we can build and maintain our resilience. I talk about: Jacinda Ardern’s landslide victory in New Zealand Women leading as women not trying to be men or by burning out The impact of stress on our health Covid making us all depleted and how important it is to replenish My son coming home Tricky conversations about race Being open to being uncomfortable so we can continue to grow My hopes for the US election Living in a Covid world Getting creative about festivals and celebration Not being able to go visit my mum again Staying positive Since I recorded this, I became aware that the video I mentioned is not wholly correct. Trump did say there were fine people on both sides after the disturbances in Charlottesville, but in that press conference he went on to say that he was not talking about the white supremacists. I still have no doubt that he has stoked the fires of prejudice but I wanted to point out that the video has taken his words out of context as did Joe Biden. I follow the line on the US situation of Glennon Doyle in terms of not necessarily being happy with either alternatives. But as she says, when the house is burning, you don't wait for the fire brigade to turn up. You just get out of the burning house.  More about this in this article.

Former NZ Women's Weekly editor Sido Kitchin joins The Fold's Duncan Greive to talk about starting School Road Publishing and launching a whole new stable of magazines following the collapse of Bauer Media.Sido Kitchin loves telling New Zealand women's stories. An important figure in the magazine industry, she edited the New Zealand Women's Weekly until earlier this year, when the collapse of Bauer Media brought it and a lot of other popular titles to an abrupt end.The six months since have been a period of regeneration for the magazine industry, with a number of new independent publishers, titles and websites blooming. Perhaps no one has moved as hard and fast as Sido Kitchin, who has set up School Road Publishing and established not just one but four new titles – Woman, Haven, Thrive and Scout.She joined The Fold host Duncan Greive in the studio this week for a chat about this tumultuous year, what it was like starting with a blank canvas and why the first issue of Woman is more true to her vision than any magazine she's ever edited before – plus what it was like being a TV publicist in the golden era of big budget broadcast television.

Barbara Brookes gives voice to a hidden history we've never read about. In this session from Going West 2016, she shares the story of her ground-breaking book in conversation with Judith Pringle. Her book is the first written narrative account of New Zealand's past from the perspective of the women who lived here.  In relation to the story she set out to tell, Barbara says “so much of New Zealand history is written in terms of wars… but what about all the women who died in childbirth, which they regularly did in the 19th century, and what did it mean to be the mother of 8 children or 10 children… and what did it mean for Māori mothers to lose all their children in the 19th century with disease imported by the Europeans?” A History of New Zealand Women is the story of women who spoke out against government incursion of Māori land, of women who farmed, who painted and wove, sang and wrote. It is a history that places the women of Aotearoa in the 21st century at the United Nations, at the Grammy awards, and the Olympics and in fields as diverse as themselves of women who are shaping the new millennium. Barbara Brookes is Professor of History at Otago University. A History of New Zealand Women was the winner of the Ockham New Zealand Book Award for Best Illustrated Non-Fiction. Judith Pringle is Professor of Organisation Studies and leader of the Gender and Diversity Group Trust at Auckland University of Technology.

We bring together two audacious feminist writers who put their heads well above the parapets with their recent books: Lizzie Marvelly, author of That F Word: Growing up Feminist in Aotearoa and Australian author Clementine Ford, whose bestselling book Fight Like a Girl was described by one reader as “an unapologetic roar for equality”. Ford and Marvelly will compare trans-Tasman notes on that ‘F’ word, trolls and feminism’s current trajectory. Barbara Brookes (author of A History of New Zealand Women) will steer the conversation.​ This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin www.oar.org.nz

England broke their own world record for the highest one-day international total, making 481 runs off 50 overs against Australia at Trent Bridge. In professional cricket, only Surrey have got closer to 500, when they scored 496 at the Oval and only New Zealand Women's team have scored more in an ODI, when they hit Ireland for 490 earlier this month. We ask, which team will reach the 500 mark first? The Acting Chief Executive Officer of Cricket South Africa, Thabang Moroe, believes that the country's women and men cricketers should be treated equally, and therefore, must be paid the same. But not everyone agrees. In an article, former South Africa Test batsman Boeta Dippenaar said men are rightly paid more - comments which have drawn a backlash from several of the county's leading female players. Dippenaar joined us on the show to explain why he feels it is unrealistic to expect female and male cricketers to be paid the same. And we hear from Afghanistan's teenage sensation Rashid Khan following his country's Test debut in India. Picture - Alex Hales (Credit - Getty Images)

How do we write a history of caring? This became a central question for Barbara Brookes, Professor of History at the University of Otago in writing 'A History of New Zealand Women'. There have been major transitions in the locus of care over time. In the early twentieth century, for example, unmarried daughters might be expected to care for their parents in old age. In the mid-twentieth century, married women with children were expected to care for them. The care of children and the elderly, expected in the past to be the responsibility of families and to take place in family homes, or benevolent or church institutions, might now take place in a commercial context. In the twenty-first century, such caring – both for the elderly and the young – may be part of the market economy. This talk will consider the changing landscapes of care and their implications in the twenty-first century. Recorded at the National Library of New Zealand, 2 August 2017.

One of the youngest Chief Executives ever appointed in the New Zealand Public Service, she has invested her time and energy in advancing the cause of the vulnerable in society, spearheading some of the most difficult issues of our time, including child abuse, child poverty, family violence and vulnerable women.
