This month we’re celebrating the diverse array of people who call New Zealand home. Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, nationalities, ages, orientations and even genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.

There’s many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck where each attendee brings a dish from a country of their choice to coordinating a fundraiser that benefits refugees or our elderly there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their native language or ensuring local footpaths are accessible!

Don’t forget this month also coincides with Women’s Refugee Awareness Month and International Day of Friendship on July 30th - a United Nations day that promotes the role that friendship plays in promoting peace in many cultures.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re making your community more inclusive this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

New call-blocking technology fights spammers

Telco has introduced a new technology which screens incoming calls. Looking like a normal home phone, unknown callers have to announce their name and the receiver can then decide whether to accept or block the call.

Results from a trial showed that of all calls received, about 30 per cent were nuisance or scam calls, of which 98 per cent were blocked.

If you're sick of scammers, would you be willing to invest in this? How much would you be willing to pay?
