UN Youth Model Parliament discuss media and politics

Donald Matheson (COMS) joined TVNZ reporter and former student Thomas Mead and Hariklia Nicola, editor of CANTA, on Saturday 7 September for a panel at the UN Youth Model Parliament, held at Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha. The panel discussed the relationship of media and politics and answered some excellent critical questions from rangatahi about everything from AI to opinion polling and social media platforms. The parliament is the flagship annual event of UN Youth Aotearoa, with a goal of inspiring young people and developing their global citizenship. (Credit: Marjolaine Stranaghan)
