Questions to consider
INVITATION to ZOOM MEETING WEDNESDAY 6 OCTOBER 2021 7.15 FOR 7.30 START
We are just coming through a long period of lockdown and starting to see a way through to a more "normal" way of life, but all of us know that restrictions may be needed again to prevent severe illness and deaths and to prevent our hospital systems from being overrun. Come and join this BPW Franklin meeting on Zoom where consideration will be given to what we've learnt during lockdown and share our thoughts on these questions as we look at the way forward. Giving particular thought to how some of these issues will affect women and girls and if you have stories to share that would be great! If together, we feel strongly one way or another on any of these issues, this may be the starting point for building a resolution to take to the next BPW NZ Conference.
1) Do you think New Zealand should put in place "health passes" or "vaccination passports" to allow access to indoor events or hospitality to those who are vaccinated?
2) Should home wifi access and digital devices be provided to school students?
3) What are the challenges small and micro businesses face during lockdown? What could the government do to provide more support?
If you would like to be part of this discussion please contact Virginia Warren who will send you the zoom link.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
