Pūtaiao Issue 23. The art of science: Spotlight on our latest research
This issue of Pūtaiao covers a wide range of impactful social science and climate science, including in the Pacific. This is also the first issue of Pūtaiao in which Manaaki Whenua is a constituent group of the newly created Bioeconomy Science Institute (BSI). As part of a once-in-a-generation change to New Zealand’s science and innovation system, Manaaki Whenua joined with AgResearch, Scion and Plant & Food Research on July 1, 2025. The new institute will advance innovation, protect and enhance ecosystems and develop new bio-based technologies and products through our combined research capabilities.
We look forward to the shared science and research opportunities the Bioeconomy Science Institute will bring – to grow New Zealand’s sustainable, export-led bioeconomy and deliver positive environmental and social outcomes.
