Online through Microsoft Teams
We’ll be talking with key representatives from Whaikaha – Ministry of Disabled People, Brian Coffey, Matt Frost and Miriam Pierard about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) and what it means for Aotearoa, New Zealand.
We’ll be chatting about:
- Whaikaha’s current priorities for advancing UNCRPD implementation
- The recommendation to remove all institutions in New Zealand – what it means, why it matters
- Opportunities for providers and disabled people to be part of the conversation
This is an important opportunity to explore how we can collectively work towards a rights-based, inclusive future for all disabled people in Aotearoa.
