Anything that puts our kids at the forefront will always get the big tick from me” said Hone Harawira, MANA Leader and MP for Te Tai Tokerau when speaking about the Tick For Kids campaign to put children at the heart of political decision making in the next government. “It’s an awesome initiative and one that MANA wholeheartedly supports”

“Something drastic needs to change for kids in Aotearoa if we are to eliminate child poverty, homelessness, the growing education gap, and the number of kids still going to school hungry every day"

“MANA has prioritised children across all of our key policies including feed the kids, decent housing for all families, and the right to free, high quality education” said Harawira

“I commend all those organisations in launching this initiative, and I encourage all other parties, and particularly the government, to pick up the challenge and put kids at the centre of their policies as well”
