Teikamata
Teikamata is a dedicated advocate for the rights of children, particularly those who have been victims of exploitation and slavery. Recently, she and her team assisted ten Samoan teenagers who escaped abusive situations after being promised better lives through adoption, only to find themselves forced into labor. Teikamata's work highlights the urgent need for reforms in adoption practices and child protection laws in New Zealand, as she emphasizes the alarming ease with which adoptive parents can bypass safeguards, potentially leading to further exploitation.
