Wednesday 15th July 2026 - 12:00pm-1:00pm
Overview
On Wednesday 15 July, 12–1pm, PRINZ is partnering with Belong Aotearoa for a member webinar exploring one of the most important questions facing communications professionals right now: how do we help ethnically diverse communities get heard?
Belong Aotearoa is a national organisation working to strengthen belonging and social cohesion across Aotearoa New Zealand. Their flagship storytelling initiative, PassTheMic, amplifies the voices of migrant and refugee-background communities — and they need our help to shape its next chapter.
At a time when anti-migrant sentiment is becoming more visible in our public discourse, this is a chance to put your communications expertise to work on something that matters. You’ll hear directly from Angela Wilton, CEO of Belong Aotearoa with insights into this incredible audience and community. This is information you won’t get from anyone else and is gold for communicators targeting these audiences.
We’d also love you to join a facilitated discussion, led by Avalon Communication’s Lee Cowan, on how storytelling can shift public narratives on migration, diversity, and belonging. Your insights will directly inform the next iteration of PassTheMic — a nationally significant campaign that needs the kind of strategic thinking our members do every day.
