Al Jazeera reports on homeless crisis in New Zealand

Published on: 08 May 2016

Doha - 4th August 2016

Once a pioneer of the social welfare state, New Zealand now has over forty thousand people who are homeless, forced to live in their cars and in garages as a result of rapid house price and rent rises and a shortage of social housing. 

Al Jazeera correspondent and New Zealander Tarek Bazley visits South Auckland and meets two families – one with six children living in a derelict garage, the other who lived with three teenagers for months in their car – and charts the country’s fall from and egalitarian society to one with deep divisions of wealth.
