One-sided football game highlights climate change and global inequalities

todd from EarthDiverse

EarthDiverse makes the news again, this time in the New Zealand Herald with an article that describes our partnership with the award winning International NGO, Spirit of Football (based in Germany). Project co-lead Nona Morris (EarthDiverse's Director of Educational Programmes), and team members, Eva Bernabe-Bernardo (co-lead), Pepa Torre (publicity), and Anna Casey-Cox (volunteer community support), launched the first New Zealand Spirit of Football Fair Play game and Climate Action workshop with Hamilton Girls High School participants. The game itself is an analogy for climate change inequities, and the workshop supports participants to make a climate action pledge. Read this brief article in today's New Zealand Herald (Waikato Edition) by clicking the link below. Stay tuned for more such games in the lead up to New Zealand's hosting of the FIFA Women's World Cup games early next year!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
