In November 2023, NZRAP participated in the Auckland University of Technology (AUT) Symposium – ‘Refugee Journeys: Celebrating diversity, participation and future thinking’ This event was held at AUT’s city campus in Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland, New Zealand.
The symposium highlighted the intersections of social equity, human rights and well-being through recent research while focusing on communities with refugee backgrounds in Aotearoa New Zealand. The one-day event commenced with a keynote address from Helen Clark, former New Zealand Prime Minister. It brought together diverse participants from varied disciplinary and community backgrounds to meet and network. The NZRAP joined fellow researchers, postgraduate students, civil society and government representatives to discuss recent refugee policy developments and present their research.
