Summary of delivery against our five performance outputs: How we delivered What we achieved Output 1: Human rights education, promotion and advocacy programmes that are delivered effectively Informing and educating the public on human rights • Increased our reach and relevance through effectively harnessing digital and social media, and making available publications, guidelines and other relevant information through our website. In this reporting period, the Commission earned 9,843 new fans, an increase of 11percent on last year. • Increased connection with New Zealanders highlighted by increases in social media posts, with an average of 47,010 interactions per month. • Launched the Voice of Racism campaign, the second phase of the Commission’s flagship Give Nothing to Racism campaign.

Our digital material was accessed with over 1 million views during the year and 18,324 downloads were recorded. • Published Kōrero Whakamauāhara: Hate Speech which provides an overview of the current legal framework on hate speech. • We heard what impact hate speech has on the people of Aoteoroa, through our 14 community engagements held during September and October 2019. Output 2: Legal interventions in courts and tribunals promote human rights Legal interventions to promote human rights Legal interventions are a critical mechanism to promote human rights matters and drive change. We made 10 legal interventions ranging in topics covering: • Religious education in state schools • Seasonal migrant workers accommodation • Government’s funded family care policy for caregivers of adult disabled people • New Zealand’s obligations under the UN Convention against Torture • The Waitangi Tribunal’s findings and recommendations on Wai 2870 into Māori prisoners’ voting rights, August 2019, reflected our submission on human rights principles in the context of Tiriti obligations and consistent with the Commission’s statutory responsibilities which include promoting better understanding of the human rights dimensions of Te Tiriti. 7
