MOSAIC

Our MOSAIC resources support youth workers to hold safe, meaningful kōrero with rangatahi about racism, discrimination, and values, and to navigate situations where young people express and/or are impacted by discriminatory views.

​

It is a powerful, community-led response that empowers youth workers and young people to foster empathy, understanding, and peaceful dialogue. Our mission is to create a more inclusive society where all rangatahi feel a sense of belonging and are equipped to navigate conversations around prejudice and racism with courage and compassion.

Our Key Resources

We have developed a suite of practical, youth-friendly resources to support youth workers in their critical mahi. These tools provide a structured and safe way to open up difficult conversations and build stronger, more resilient communities.

MOSAIC Conversation Cards

These cards kickstart conversations about prejudice, racism, and identity. Each card provides a thought-provoking question or prompt that encourages young people to share their stories, listen to others, and find common ground. They are a tangible resource for creating powerful, hopeful discussions.

Online Resources & Pathways 

The Mosaic website and online resources provide a central hub for deeper learning. It guides teachers, youth workers and young people toward resources, training pathways, and a supportive network. The site acts as a gateway to our tools and connects people to the broader movement of building a more peaceful and inclusive Aotearoa.

Practice Note: Responding to the Radicalisation of Young People

This practice note provides youth workers with clear, actionable guidance on identifying and responding to the signs of radicalisation. It offers a framework grounded in positive youth development principles, equipping them to intervene early, provide support, and steer young people away from harmful ideologies. This document ensures that those on the front lines have the knowledge and confidence to protect vulnerable youth.
