The Panel with Leonie Freeman and Martin Bosley, Part 2
from RNZ - All Programmes
In part two, if we're talking divisive issues in New Zealand, well, there is a laundry list of hot-button topics. If we're wanting a way through the public discourse to actual solutions, the idea of citizen's assemblies may be the answer. Iain Walker is the Executive Director of the NewDemocracy Foundation in Australia, he's led dozens of citizen's assemblies and explains why he believes they work. Then, New Brighton in Christchurch has really struggled to bounce back post-earthquakes. Part of the suburb getting back on its feet is the annual firework's display on the New Brighton pier. Celeste Donovan, Christchurch city councillor, explains why the display is going from strength to strength.
