Welcome Message and Key Introduction:

Kia ora, assalamu alaykum and welcome to the CHILL Campaign!

We are so happy to have you join us on this journey to celebrate the incredible stories of Muslim women in New Zealand.

Our campaign has several goals: 1) to share voices that often go unheard, to challenge stereotypes, 2) to promote understanding, and 3) to challenge stereotype. Over the next two months, we will be sharing inspiring videos and stories that highlight the strength, talents and accomplishments of Muslim women in our community.

We ask everyone to simply just CHILL.  Remember, your support can help motivate others to embrace inclusivity and challenge Islamophobia in their circles.
