QUOTES
to the Office of the Children’s Commissioner about experiences of racism and discrimination in NZ
“The racist bastards that call us brown kids pieces of poo and baa baa blacksheeps - schools need to get this stuff improved.” Primary school student, Māori / New Zealand European / Pacific People
“If everyone could speak Māori, things would be easier, and we’d have less problems. Pākehā and Māori should be taught.” Student in kura kaupapa, Māori
“At other schools we’re judged like ‘typical Māori girl’. We were labelled at other schools. [They] already decided who we were. Like ‘oh there’s a brown girl, she is going to beat us up. Stay away from them [Māori]’. Makes us mad and feel down.” Student from teen parent unit, Māori
“People like the government say bad things about us, but I don’t care cause I know my whānau.” Māori young person in community centre for 12- to 17-year-olds - Housing New Zealand site

Article 24
- Health Services :hospital:
The child has a right to the highest standard of health and medical care attainable. States shall place special emphasis on the reduction of infant and child mortality and on the provision of primary and preventive healthcare and of public health education.
You have the right to the best health care possible, safe water drink, nutritious food, a clean and safe environment, and information to help you stay well.
The most frequent barrier is now the inability to make an appointment within 24 hours, which affects children in all population groups.
STATS
Māori and Pacific children are more exposed to lack of transport as a barrier to accessing primary care. Fewer than 1% of European or Asian children experience this barrier to accessing a GP, compared with 3% of Māori and almost 6% of Pacific children.
From 2016–2020 there were over 5,000 potentially avoidable hospitalisations for vaccine preventable diseases. Two-thirds of these hospitalisations (3,300) were children aged under five years. Influenza accounted for almost 60% of hospitalisations for vaccine-preventable diseases, mostly in 2018–2019. Influenza vaccine is recommended and funded for children with specific health conditions. Other common hospitalisations for vaccine-preventable diseases included those for measles and whooping cough (pertussis), which are included in the national immunisation schedule for all children. Hospitalisation rates for chickenpox (varicella) declined after this vaccine was added to the immunisation schedule in 2017.
Article 22
- Refugee Protection :world_map:
Special protection shall be granted to a refugee child or to a child seeking refugee status. It is the State’s obligation to cooperate with competent organisations that provide such protection and assistance.
You have the right to special protection and help if you are a refugee (if you have been forced to leave your home and live in another country), as well as all the rights in this Convention.
Article 32
- Freedom from Child Labour
You have the right to protection from work that harms you, and is bad for your health and education. If you work, you have the right to be safe and paid fairly
The child has the right to be protected from work that threatens his or her health, education or development. The State shall set minimum ages for employment and shall regulate working conditions.
Roughly 160 million children were subjected to child labour at the beginning of 2020, with 9 million additional children at risk due to the impact of COVID-19.
This accounts for nearly 1 in 10 children worldwide.
Children may be driven into work for various reasons. Most often, child labour occurs when families face financial challenges or uncertainty – whether due to poverty, sudden illness of a caregiver, or job loss of a primary wage earner.
