Angus Lonergan's Linkedin Analytics

Driven by a deep commitment to equity and social justice, I work at the intersection of youth engagement, public advocacy, and systems change. Until recently, I led child and youth engagement at UNICEF Aotearoa, designing inclusive initiatives that amplified the voices of young people in public policy. Now, I’m focused on tackling wealth inequality and child poverty in Aotearoa — supporting values-driven individuals, organisations, and political candidates who are challenging the status quo. With nearly a decade of experience across government, non-profit, and peak bodies, I bring a strategic and authentic approach to engagement — particularly with marginalised communities, including LGBTQIA+ youth, rural communities, and those who’ve experienced poverty firsthand. My work spans civic education, campaigning, facilitation, editorial, and participatory research on issues ranging from climate change to education and mental health. I hold a Master of International Relations and believe in the power of bold, community-rooted action to shift systems and deliver real change. Open to working, talking, engaging, and collaborating — especially with those building a fairer future for Aotearoa.
