Kia ora All,

Also, Chris House from Te Tari Taiwhenua Department of Internal Affairs has another short update: “We have now published the decision on the briefing topic we discussed at the call on 17 November. The final topic is: “How can community participation and decision-making be better enabled by technology?” There is more information about the topic and what we heard on our website, including a summary of the themes specifically from the November call on page 8 of the Topic Decision document. We will keep people updated directly and through Steven on opportunities to be involved as the briefing develops. Thanks again to everyone who has helped shape this mahi.  We hope you all have a fantastic summer break.”

If you are looking for road trip listening this week will be episode 289 of seeds podcast www.theseeds.nz and just did a collection of 30 conversations with those involved in EHF that may interest here https://theseeds.nz/ehf-conversations/

Be watching out for info on the conference in October 2022 – likely 27/28th in Christchurch for 1,400 is the plan.

Will send out meeting invite next year for the next time we gather which is likely in late February.  It will be for all the meetings that year so if you accept it they all go in your diary.  Have a great restful break all!!

Ka mihi

Steven
