This event is part of CPAG's Nationwide Budget Breakfast Series being held in six main centres - Whangarei, Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch (podcast) and Nelson (May 31)
CPAG also intends to provide a comprehensive budget review shortly after the budget is released. Visit www.cpag.org.nz to get your copy on Friday 26 May.
Come along and hear about how the budget will affect children living in poverty, with a focus on young people. How are youth currently affected by poverty? Will the budget improve lives, or provide further challenges for disadvantaged young people?

GUEST SPEAKER & PANEL
Associate Professor Karen Nairn: Karen wrote the book Children of
Rogernomics (with Jane Higgins and Judith Sligo) to connect the stories of
young people with the wider social and economic story of NZ during the last
three decades. Karen’s research interests continue to focus on the effects of
deepening economic and social inequalities for children and young people
growing up in Aotearoa.
