In Aotearoa, the WERO: Working to End Racial Oppression research programme has been dedicated to this cause for the past five years. The programme focuses on identifying the extent and persistence of racism, scrutinising both institutional and interpersonal forms of racial oppression, and developing strategies to mitigate its effects on society. In 2025, WERO will host an international conference at the University of Waikato, gathering researchers, activists, and community members from Aotearoa and around the world to explore pathways to combat racial oppression.
