A future in which all young people are supported to thrive, succeed, and enjoy a happy and healthy life. I hope the next generation in Aotearoa enjoy an equitable society where life outcomes for certain groups are less predetermined by forces of oppression.

Never give up. Sometimes it can feel like there isn't room for you, your voice, your ideas and your whole self at the table. But always look for a way to make space yourself and then pull up a chair for other wāhine that may also face a lack of representation.

For me it would be to start now, set goals, expose yourself too many opportunities, and be confident in your skin. Life is too short to let anyone get under your skin. And btw don't take your elders for granted they are the knowledge keepers.

"It's marching the streets, advocating for change, working to heal intergenerational wounds or even making your bed after a hard week. Whatever 'putting in the work' looks like for you, it's valid. We are all fighting the patriarchy in different ways"
