Mahi - The Disability Employment Podcast

Workbridge CEO Jonathan Mosen speaks with Holly Walker, Deputy Director of the Helen Clark Foundation about their latest report, "Still Alone Together".   The new report draws upon new statistics, and highlights the disproportionate loneliness felt by disabled people in Aotearoa New Zealand. The report also looks at how loneliness changed as the nation came out of Level 4 lockdown, and the progress made against the recommendations made in the Foundation's original paper on loneliness. Jonathan Mosen contributed to this paper on how being employed not only brings dignity and economic independence, but also lessens loneliness.   The report is available in a variety of formats from The Helen Clark Foundation's website.
