Bridging Cultures community event: July 1st, Porirua

Tēnā koutou!

On July 1st we will be holding the first hui of our Bridging Cultures project in Porirua, Wellington!

This is an event for connecting ethnic and Pasifika communities with tangata whenua, in order to strengthen our community relationships and encourage collaboration.

Bridging Cultures is a free hui that was conceived out of feedback from these communities describing their lack of connection with each other. We believe that connecting our communities is a critical part of anti-racism work, as building solidarity and sharing our knowledge and experiences promotes inclusion and belonging for the many different ethnicities that call Aotearoa home.

Kai will be provided, meaning you only need to bring yourself, your story, and an open mind.

This date was supposed to mark our second hui, though unfortunately, we had to reschedule the June 1st Glen Innes event. So, help us make our first session a special one ❤️ 

When: July 1st, 9:00 AM
Where: Porirua, Wellington (more detailed instructions provided upon registration).

Registrations close on May 31st, so if you are interested in attending this hui then please reach out to [email protected] for a link to the registration or further information.

Thank you to all our funders that make these important conversations and connections possible: The Tindall Foundation, TODD Foundation, Trust Waikato, Foundation North, Wellington Community Trust, and the Ministry for Social Development
