Our goal for New Zealand is a society that values life from conception to natural death. We have been working over the last fourty years to bring New Zealand closer to this goal.
Our 4500 members make a commitment to working to provide the education, support and understanding to all New Zealanders so this goal can be realised. We have always promoted sensible, researched-based solutions to facilitate these goals. We believe that reaching our goal is a long term effort that can be reached by incremental change with widespead public support.
Alongside this change, we see the work that our organisation does to support and educate the New Zealand community as a vital part of our strategy.
Our approach
Voice for Life educates about the humanity of the unborn child and the dignity of human life:
- street stalls and A&P shows;
- school visits;
- local newspaper advertising;
- distributing informative material;
- presenting the pro-life message in the media;
- lobbing politicians;
- and much more.
Our branches
Voice for Life is a voluntary organisation, pro-active in the education of people about human rights.
With more than 30 branches and 4,500 members across the country, members work to educate and inform the public about the intrinsic value of human life from conception until natural death.
We also provide guidence and information on issues which relate to the protection of the unborn, women’s health, families, the old or infirm and bio-ethics.
Our history
Voice for Life was founded in March 1970, when two NZ-based obstetrics and gynaecology specialists became alarmed at abortion developments in Britain. Providing professional medical assurance about the humanity of the unborn, they inspired thousands of New Zealanders to join the prolife movement.
In 2005, the organisation expanded to recognise the intrinsic connection with respect for women’s health, the old or infirm, and those at the forefront of bioethical decision-making.
