Paul Spoonley: Report author on document highlighting strains within New Zealand society

Alarm bells are ringing over the pressures New Zealand's social cohesion is facing. Auckland University think tank, Koi Tu: The Centre for Informed Futures, has released a discussion document highlighting strains within New Zealand society. It says factors such as political, economic and environmental issues alongside increased misinformation are having a negative impact. Co-author of the report, Paul Spoonley told Mike Hosking they've seen some big changes since they first started looking into the issue. He says since 2020, there's been a decline in trust relating to core institutions such as the Government and the media. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
