Our equity statement

At Arts Access Aotearoa, we value people.

We value people’s time.

We value people’s lived experience, and we understand it as expertise.

We recognise that we don’t all start from the same place.

Sometimes there can be an imbalance.

Some people have more power and privileges.

We understand that it can take extra effort for some people to turn up and be involved.

At Arts Access Aotearoa, we come from a place of aroha.

We work in relationship with each other to understand, connect and share.

We want to create a fairer and more just world where everyone is valued for all parts of who they are.

We’d love to kōrero.
