Race Unity Speech Awards
​
The Race Unity Speech Awards are a platform for senior high school students to express their ideas on how we can improve race relations in Aotearoa. 

​The Race Unity Speech Awards took place in June 2023, with the theme ‘Awhihia Te Rito: Nurture the Young’. Speeches encompassed the concept that each new generation holds the promise of a future free from racism. They state that to build race unity we need to nurture and support children and young people, protecting them from the influence of racism and fostering their love for diversity, equity and justice.

Gargi Vaidya, a Year 12 from Rotorua’s John Paul College, won the Tohu Aumangea - Hedi Moani Memorial Award for Advocacy – for demonstrating how to stand up for our rights and the rights of others, Race Unity Speech Awards 2023. She stated, ‘go forward as one, embracing each other despite our differences is a moral obligation we all have’.
