1. A new social contract

Everyone deserves a fair go in life. But Auckland is a tale of two cities and too many people are stuck in a trajectory of persistent disadvantage.

We’re working with partners to tackle social inequity and knit strong social fabric so everyone in south and west Auckland can live fulfilling and good lives.

We nurture mana enhancing conditions needed for equity and intergenerational wellbeing.

We short-circuit systems that keep inequality, inertia, discrimination and failure demand entrenched.

We disseminate information about practical actions and insights for placed-based and whānau-centred supports.

We support public sector reform so local and central government are better enabled to meet multi-crises head-on and be genuine Te Tiriti partners.
