In April 2022, the Government of New Zealand’s Te Tari Taiwhenua Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) released its first annual Digital Violent Extremism Transparency Report. This is the first report of its kind in New Zealand and supports the Government’s overall commitments to transparency in reporting. The purpose of this report is to help the New Zealand public better understand how DIA works to identify violent extremist content online and address harm from online violent extremism. DIA’s mandate is to prevent or minimise harm caused by terrorist and violent extremist content (TVEC) online. The DIA works to fulfil this mandate within a legal framework that reflects Aotearoa New Zealand’s commitment to the rule of law, human rights and fundamental freedoms – including privacy and freedom of expression and a free, open and secure internet.
