In this section
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare Research Link is a series of short seminars and discussions for environmental policy-makers in Wellington. These sessions provide an informal way for our scientists to deliver key research outcomes or share the science challenges with a broad-based policy audience. The peer-to-peer feedback and discussion is valuable to the Manaaki Whenua team, and more discussions often follow. Themes to date have included a range of ecosystems services topics, the aspiration for a pest / predator free NZ, modelling of economic impacts of land use policy, freshwater management, Māori land, biodiversity, soil mapping and policy innovation.
