Welcome to Public Good

  • Do you sometimes wonder why not doing something because “it doesn’t make economic sense” just doesn’t make sense?
  • Do you sometimes think that the public sector gets a battering that is at odds with your experience of excellent teachers, dedicated workers in the health service and public services that work pretty well?
  • Do you wonder whether democracy really is just one chance to vote every three years?
  • Does it seem odd that the needs of the economy always trumps the needs of people?
  • Would you like to feel less cynical and more engaged, and to feel like a citizen rather than a customer?

If the answer to any of these questions is ‘Yes’, then Public Good is an organisation that will interest you.

A few last minute spaces if this sounds like you. Mindful people build the future. Starts Sunday 5.30 - 7.00 at St Andrew's on the Terrace in Wellington. Could there be societal impacts of widely adopted meditation? Could those impacts include you? scoop.co.nz/stories/…

@AnneliseJoy @radionz a) its a news website - publicly funded addressing an issue about a bill that has been withdrawn b) to the right of the article there are more stories written from an uncritical pro trans view c) You are claiming fear,ignorance & hate? I don't see that. What are you seeing?
