Tino rangatiratanga me te kāwanatanga | Government and organisation
  • Year 5-6: Governments have selectively supported or excluded people through processes associated with voting rights, access to education, health, and welfare provision, reflecting prevailing public attitudes of the time. Often equitable treatment has been sought by people, including Māori, Chinese, women, children, and disabled people.
    • How, over time, have various New Zealand governments restricted voting rights? How have people advocated for their rights? How did the Government respond to the hardships of the Great Depression?
