How does the Long Song Incorporated sound?

Jacinta has proposed that we form New Zealand Youth Voice an incorporated society. It's not as scary as it sounds and there could be stacks of benefits in doing so.

This is a pretty important development so please make yourself heard by voting in this poll and/or leaving your comments.

Jacinta has also arranged a summary of previously raised thoughts on the issue.

Welcome

you and i are by fate or destiny or otherwise, alive at an absolutely critical moment in the history of our planet. we have never had to create our own future for such serious reasons, or had such an opportunity to put our talents to use in such a purposeful way.

anything else you're interested in, anything you appreciate is not going to happen if you can't breathe clean air and drink clean water, is not going to happen for your children.

we invite you to not sit this one out, do something, join in the chorus, write your own words, or just listen.

the future needs you.

Love from Meg.
