Social Justice Week 2023

Social Justice Week runs from 3 - 9 September 2023.

Social Justice Week in 2023 is the beginning of something new! For the next three years, the focus of Social Justice Week will be on peace and responding to conflict. The overarching tagline is:

‘Imagine Peace For All / Pohewatia te Rangimārie mō te Katoa’.

Each year there will be a unique focus, and for 2023 it is:

‘Peace begins with you! / Ka tīmata tonu te Rangimārie i roto i ā koe!’
