Table Talk Workshops

We are running a series of workshops giving people the chance to engage in meaningful kōrero with experts on key topics: Māori representation at the Council table, reduction in councillors, and the role of our five community boards. Come and learn something new, and perhaps unpack the things that may have stopped you from joining the kōrero in the past.

Each table will focus on one of these topics, providing an opportunity to share your views, hear from others and delve deeper into what these changes mean. You'll have the opportunity to move around and spend equal time at each of the three tables, providing you the chance to gain a good understanding of all the topics.

This is your chance to voice concerns, ask questions, and provide feedback as you rotate through each topic. Your input is invaluable in shaping how we move forward together as a community.
