The Official AOTEAROA IS NOT FOR SALE Campaign Site

2012 brings with it the events of the past year, the Occupy movement, the Arab Spring and the ongoing effects of the global financial crisis.

Understanding these issues, knowing the problem, is one of the first steps in successfully challenging the status quo, challenging Capitalism.

There’ll be a mix of local and international speakers. So join us for a wide ranging series of discussions over Queen’s Birthday Weekend.
