When whānau and communities thrive, children thrive. Improving children’s lives requires lifting incomes at all levels (see our Livelihoods Policy), and supporting parents in and outside of work (see our Workforce and Women’s Policies), as well as protecting the wellbeing of the natural world and supporting their deep connection with it (see our Biodiversity and Environmental Regeneration and Climate Change Policies).
