A Hip Hop event to raise awareness and generate traction regarding New Zealand's current Age of Criminal Responsibility
IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND, 10 & 11-YEAR-OLDS CAN BE GIVEN LIFE SENTENCES.
Primary school aged kids shouldn’t be facing life sentences and right now, our government has the power to stop it.
In Aotearoa, our minimum age of criminal responsibility is 10. This is the age that kids can be prosecuted and punished for a crime. 10 sounds too young right? That’s because it is.
Join us and ask the government to end this harmful system by increasing this age to at least 14, with an immediate increase to 12 and then to at least 14 once needed changes ensure that the system caring for these children is effective and appropriate.
