Change the NZ Flag

This is the site of the NZFlag.com Trust - a Trust established to promote debate about New Zealand's national identity and, in particular, about New Zealand's flag. We believe that the time has come for New Zealanders to choose a flag which represents New Zealanders as we see ourselves today - to respect and reflect our history as a nation, to represent us to others as we would we would like them to see us and, importantly, to carry us forward with our hopes and aspirations for New Zealand's future.

Why Change?

Erin Baker, World Champion Tri Athlete
New Zealand requires a flag which each and every New Zealander can instantly recognise and can feel proud of. I would be very surprised if I am the only New Zealander that never quite knows how many stars we have, nor feels any ownership of it.

We need our own clear cross cultural flag we can all take pride and ownership it.

It's time to change our flag

This site is intended to stimulate debate about the New Zealand Flag. We want all New Zealanders to ask whether the current flag represents our country as we see ourselves today? Can we improve it? Does it portray the image we want to give of New Zealand internationally? Most importantly, does it inspire us?
