'Bring Back Kate' is Women’s Refuge’s latest call to action on domestic violence in New Zealand. Our country became the world leader in women’s rights when our iconic suffragette, Kate Sheppard, won Kiwi women the right to vote. These days, one third of women in New Zealand will be affected by domestic violence at some point in their lives. Women’s Refuge recently campaigned to 'Bring Back Kate' once again to the steps of Parliament, taking the form of a 3D sculpture bearing the names of ordinary New Zealander's who refuse to tolerate the current levels of violence against women and children. The Kate statue is currently on display at the National Library in Wellington.
