Discover the inspiring journeys of Northland women and the ongoing battle for gender equity in New Zealand.

On International Women's Day, let's shine a light on the remarkable stories of women from Northland, New Zealand. One of them is teenage equestrian Charlotte Thorpe, a 16-year-old from Kaitāia with big Olympic dreams. Charlotte is dedicated to her craft, aspiring to shine on the world stage. In another corner, Cecilia Robinson raises a critical question about the value placed on women's voices, highlighting the issue of speaking for free. While New Zealand has made progress in narrowing the gender pay gap, there is still work to be done towards achieving true equity. Niki Bezzant's poignant words remind us of the subtle yet pervasive ways women are excluded from society. Women empowerment and gender equality are ongoing battles that require communal effort and awareness.
