About Us

Founded in 2018 by a group of friends, Narrative Imperative is a creative platform that engages New Zealanders in policy and advocacy.

Through the lens of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we advocate for everyday voices to influence Government policy and decision making.

Narrative Imperative believes Aotearoa is a multi-ethnic society in which Māori have special status as Tangata Whenua. We recognise our role and responsibilities to meet the obligations of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and endeavour to foster a platform that helps champion Māori and indigenous voices and people of colour.
