How Much Do Kiwis Care? (PDF)

Council for International Development (CID). New Zealanders give generously to overseas aid. * One in every six New Zealanders contributes to aid and development projects overseas * They give over $64 million * One in 12 gives regularly to the same not-for-profit organisation * More than 8000 people are volunteers in the cause of international aid and development. These were among the main findings of a survey of 60 New Zealand-based international development organisations, carried out recently by the Council for International Development (CID) A third of the funding went to African countries in the sub-Saharan region, and a quarter went to the Indian sub-continent. Projects supported were focussed on supporting women and children, on the provision of basic services, such as education, health, water and sanitation and on the development of sustainable livelihoods for poor communities. NGOs made a very substantial contribution to New Zealand's aid to developing countries, over half as much as that given by the government to regional and country programmes. Overall, the survey shows that aid from NGOs to developing countries significantly enhances and complements the aid from the New Zealand government.

Campaign Against Foreign Control of Aotearoa (CAFCA)

CAFCA promotes the concept of an independent Aotearoa based on policies of economic, military and political self-reliance, using Aotearoa's resources for the benefit of the people of Aotearoa, and refusing involvement in the self-serving military and economic treaties of big foreign countries. We oppose foreign control, irrespective of which country it involves. We oppose the exploitation of Aotearoa's people and resources by foreign companies, and any foreign military or intelligence activities in Aotearoa. CAFCA does not support the replacement of foreign exploiters with local ones. New Zealand big business interests are collaborating with foreign companies in the exploitation of its own country - its only loyalty is to improve profits. CAFCA IS NOT RACIST. We do not oppose the people of foreign countries, only the transnational corporations (TNC's) exploiting the people of New Zealand.
