This year's season of LATE at the Museum events welcomes a year-long investigation into the theme of innovation – featuring panel discussions with this country’s leading innovators and music by our top performers.
Smart Talk
Finlay Macdonald chairs a discussion with Professor Greg Newbold, Sam Chapman, Professor Warren Brookbanks.
According to the oft-quoted statistics, New Zealand has the second highest per capita incarceration rate in the developed world, albeit a distant second to the United States. Does this mean we are a particularly crime-prone nation, and if so why? Or does it suggest we’ve got something wrong with our criminal justice system and that we’re now in a cycle of recidivist offending and reoffending precisely because our jails have become “universities of crime”?
Either way, what can we do to reduce offending, and to rehabilitate prison inmates, beyond the solutions offered by successive governments of building yet more jails and increasing the severity of criminal sentences, and thus locking up more people for longer? More about the Panel
Great Music and Dance
Dances in the galleries by Footnote Dance Company and music by Rhian Sheehan and his five piece band in the Grand Foyer.
