EarthDiverse: Tudor Women Who Moulded the Monarchy

todd from EarthDiverse

Yesterday and today EarthDiverse remember the reign of her majesty the Queen Elizabeth II, proclaimed Queen after her father, King George VI, died in the early hours on the 6th of February 1952. If you'd like to learn more about British royal history and the women involved in the Tudor monarchy, you may be interested in our newest History course entitled:

"Tudor Women Who Moulded the Monarchy"

WHAT: In the wake of Her Late Majesty’s passing, this course reflects on the female leaders of the monarchy, exploring how their gender impacted their reign and legacy. Focusing on the Tudor period, we journey from the green sleeves of Anne Boleyn to the Catholic tyranny of Mary. This course explores the antithetical female leaders and their role in shaping British History at a time of significant change, the beginning of the birth of modern Europe.

WHEN: This course meets on Tuesday evenings from 7:00-8:00 pm beginning on Tuesday 14 February 2023 (New Zealand time). If you live outside of New Zealand, please check our website for live-streamed time zone equivalents to participate via Zoom. There are 5 consecutive weekly sessions in this seminar series.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
