Pasifika communities make up more than 8 per cent of the New Zealand population, but you wouldn’t know that from looking at most mainstream media. To fill this gaping hole, the New Zealand Herald has just launched a new section, Talanoa, dedicated  to these under-represented communities.   

Today, NZ Herald Pasifika editor Vaimoana Tapaleao joins Damien to discuss what it will take to shine a light on the stories that matter to Pasifika people.

You can read stories from Talanoa here 

Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. 

You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
