Manifesto 2026 Intro C2

None of this would be possible without the hopes, ideas and passion of Green Party members, and the movement they’ve built. This manifesto is their work, and their commitment to change in Aotearoa.

That change is not hypothetical. Last time the Greens were in Government, we took more action on climate than the previous three decades of governments combined, secured the biggest ever boost to funding for protecting native plants and wildlife, and delivered Aotearoa’s first plan to eliminate family and sexual violence.

A party vote for the Green Party puts more Green MPs and Ministers around the decision-making table to reverse the damage from the last three years and fix the rules so they’re on side of people and planet.

Outlined in this document is a plan to do what is necessary. Protect what we all love. Ensure everyone’s needs are met. And make life better for all of us here in Aotearoa.
