Helping our Muslim communities feel safe and welcome

New Zealand’s Muslim communities still feel vulnerable. You can support them and help them feel accepted and wanted. If you hear or see things which may cause distress, take action. You can call out harmful language, correct misconceptions, report social media posts, or if you are very concerned, you can contact:

Police – call 105 if it’s not an emergency and 111 if a crime is taking place or there’s a threat to life or property – both numbers are free from mobiles or landline phones
Office of Ethnic Communities – Freephone: 0800 656 656, Telephone: +64 4 494 5784, Email: communities@dia.govt.nz
