| This year the Government has promised to deliver a ‘Wellbeing Budget’ to the people of Aotearoa. But will it offer the transformational change required to end the cycle of family and child poverty, and will it be sufficient to meet its Child Poverty Reduction goals?
Find out whether Budget 2019 will truly be a Wellbeing Budget, and what the impacts will be for families and children, in Child Poverty Action Group’s 2019 Post Budget presentations.
Each year CPAG provides child-focused analyses and commentary of the year’s budget looking how the budget will impact working for families tax credits, incomes, housing, education, health and welfare.
The aim is to provide an accessible and affordable avenue for the community to come together and hear about how the budget affects children and young people, especially our most vulnerable who live in poverty.
This event is a great introduction to learning about how policy impacts our children and their future outcomes, make sure to bring your friends and whanau along.
