The NZ POLITE Force works to promote and encourage sociability, through performance and participation in public spaces. Whether it’s walking the streets, attending public events, or providing POLITE Officers for official engagements, the NZ POLITE Force aims to lift spirits, go above and beyond in the use of good manners, exude good humour and bonhomie, and remind citizens of the joy of play.

The POLITE Force will hit the streets of Ōtautahi over the months of March/April/May 2021, walking the ‘city beat’ as well as basing themselves at certain locations and events, working with and assisting the citizens of Christchurch to ensure a positive spin is put on their day.

POLITE Officers are easily recognisable in their distinctive uniform as well as in the tasks they carry out. Every POLITE Officer will exemplify best citizen behaviour, initiating or acknowledging positive interactions to create memorable, impactful experiences.

The POLITE Force is on a mission to work their magic and inspire people – individually or collectively – to join them in random acts of merrymaking, with the ultimate goal being the creation of POLITE Forces across Aotearoa and beyond.
