About the Webinar

When we’re communicating about challenging topics, there’s a fine line between getting it right and getting it horribly wrong. It’s important that we find ways to communicate effectively, even when emotion sends reason out the window. So, how are others using tough talk to challenge misconceptions, historic abuses, and hate? 

IABC Wellington's Arrun Soma will lead a discussion with three women at the forefront of tough talk: 

New Zealand Green Party MP Chlöe Swabrick talks about how she’s leading the conversation on the upcoming cannabis
referendum.

Clemenger BBDO Strategy Director, Bethany Omeri, shares insights gained from starting a national conversation for the current Human Rights Commission’s campaign, Give Nothing to Racism.

Media Manager Hannah Grant from the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care speaks about the importance of tackling historic misdeeds.
