Kotahitanga: all our voices & all our votes matter this election
Voting is an important tool we can use for shaping a country that cares for people and the planet.
Our votes influence the direction of our country and the decisions that affect us all every day and the generations to come. Many of us are deeply concerned about the decisions made by the current government and the effects those decisions are having on our nation, this is our time to be heard.
In the last election, many people impacted by government decisions didn’t vote. We want to ensure all voices are heard this year by supporting people to enrol and vote.
Voting for Te Tiriti this election means voting for politicians and parties who have shown their commitment to:
- community – good relationships between all peoples
- belonging – for everyone in the community
- place – relationships with and protection of Papatūānuku
- balance – respect for rangatiratanga and kāwanatanga authority
- structure – fair representation, equity, openness and transparency in our systems
We all have a part to play in creating a just society for current and future generations. We can make a difference by voting for Te Tiriti in 2026.
