One-sided football game highlights climate change and global inequalities
EarthDiverse makes the news again, this time in the New Zealand Herald with an article that describes our partnership with the award winning International NGO, Spirit of Football (based in Germany). Project co-lead Nona Morris (EarthDiverse's Director of Educational Programmes), and team members, Eva Bernabe-Bernardo (co-lead), Pepa Torre (publicity), and Anna Casey-Cox (volunteer community support), launched the first New Zealand Spirit of Football Fair Play game and Climate Action workshop with Hamilton Girls High School participants. The game itself is an analogy for climate change inequities, and the workshop supports participants to make a climate action pledge.

Stay tuned for more such games in the lead up to New Zealand's hosting of the FIFA Women's World Cup games early next year!

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
