Who We Are

advanced divider

A group of former refugees and members of local communities came together to establish a multimedia platform which provides a platform for the diverse communities in Wellington. We aim for us all to collectively contribute by learning from each other about the issues affecting our communities. We will also be sharing information about events happening around Wellington and across Aotearoa New Zealand.  

We acknowledge the mahi and give thanks to our previous Voice of Aroha team members.
