O que funciona em Nova Zelândia

New Zealand has implemented several major equity and digital-access programmes. The Care and Support Workers (Pay Equity) Settlement Act 2017 delivered a NZD 2 billion settlement raising wages 15–50% for 55,000 predominantly female workers, while the Marae Digital Connectivity Programme has connected 676 of 877 eligible marae to free broadband since 2019, and Skinny Jump reached 31,776 active connections by July 2024 by subsidising 4G broadband to low-income households at NZD $5 per 35 GB. The evidence demonstrates commitments to pay equity, Māori digital inclusion, and affordability-driven digital access, though the practices shown do not comprehensively characterise New Zealand's broader policy landscape.
