Political Engagement & Cannibis Reform

Simon O'Connor MP & Ronji Tanielu

September 23, 2020 • Simon O'Connor

The church down through history has often been an agent of radical social change. For instance, the early church was the first social organisation to establish a community of equal status across gender, class, and ethnicity. Through the lens of drug reform and the upcoming referendum on recreational Cannabis, how does the political process work in New Zealand and how can we influence that process?

How do we engage in social and political change as people of faith today? What if we don’t always agree in the church on the details of reform?

Join MP Simon O’Connor and Ronji Tanielu as we explore this topical and important issue.
