This conference addresses poverty in Aotearoa New Zealand. It analyses the economic, governmental, legal and institutional systems that have created poverty, and which continue to lock too many whānau in its grip.
Poverty, by Design asks whether a developed nation should continue to tolerate poverty and inequality. It invites speakers who work at the front lines in the fight against poverty to tell us of the lasting and severe harms it inflicts on people’s lives. The programme will be ordered around the systems that have played, and continue to play, key roles in underpinning and maintaining the crisis of poverty: economic management, the housing, health, welfare and education systems, the courts and corrections, and short-term political thinking. The conference will also look at where hope lies, and how we can choose to re-design Aotearoa to eradicate poverty and heal those who suffer its harms.
Speakers from research backgrounds and the front lines will provide evidence, present joined-up thinking and examine where hope lies for eradicating poverty and assisting those who suffer its harms.
The conference will include sessions covering: The cost of poverty – Welfare and Inequality – State Violence and Legacies of Poverty – Housing and Homelessness – Health and (In)equality – The outcomes of Education – The Politics of Poverty – Lines of Hope.
Confirmed speakers include: Murray Edridge, Maria English, Philippa Howden-Chapman, Judge Ida Malosi, Prof Lisa Marriot, Rebecca Macfie, Max Rashbrooke, Prof Tracey McIntosh, Prof Māmari Stephens, Ass Prof Anna Matheson, Dr Jin Russell, Craig Renney, Jennie Smeaton, Pat Hanley, Brooke Pao Stanley, Agnes Magele, Dr Huhana Hickey, Sue Bradford, Bill Rosenberg, Dr Kay Saville-Smith, James Te Puni, Miriana Stephens, Prof Nikki Turner, AProf Sarah-Jane Paine, Dr Avataeao Junior Ulu, Dr Hana O'Regan, Amanda Coulston, MPs Carmel Sepuloni, and Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, Kassie Hartendorp, and Bernard Hickey as Rapporteur.
