Make the TVNZ Election debates accessible.

Kim Robinson from Deaf Action New Zealand

Every vote counts right?

To make every vote count, every voter needs access to candidates and their party policies to a make an informed decision before placing their voting choice.

It's hard when information is limited for countless Deaf and Hard of Hearing voters in NZ.

TVNZ is hosting series of Election debates. TVNZ will only be captioning the Televised debate. They don't want to add a NZSL interpreter to this.

The Young voters debate is being livestream. This won't have captioning or a NZSL Interpreter.

Young Deaf and Hard of Hearing voters end up being excluded from this.

Come on TVNZ - make your Election debates fully accessible.
