Our mission is to investigate the ideas shaping New Zealand, engage with our nation's leaders, and enrich our democracy. We're deeply committed to the people, land, history, and cultures of Aotearoa New Zealand. As a team, we work to produce rigorous research and present our recommendations to New Zealand's leaders and public. We've produced long-form research on issues including: intergenerational poverty, leadership in education, regional development, the effects of euthanasia legislation, and the barriers to employment for people with disabilities. To increase the reach of our work we host public conversation events throughout the year, speak regularly through media interviews and opinion pieces, and make all of our work freely available on our website. We also produce Flint & Steel, an annual magazine that explores some of the underlying ideas shaping our society, and New Zealand's future.
