Welcome
On
behalf of the New Zealand Chapter of the Environment Institute of
Australia and New Zealand (EIANZ), the conference organising committee
extends a very warm welcome to Wellington, New Zealand for the 2010
EIANZ conference.
The title of the conference is “From Discovery
to Delivery: Science, Policy, Leadership and Action”. These
are
the four elements which together, are essential for sound environmental
management.
Because 2010 is the International Year for Biodiversity,
many of the conference papers will focus on this particular aspect of
environmental management.
The conference streams and topics are
designed to appeal to a wide range of disciplines: - ecologists,
economists, local and central government policy analysts, urban
designers, community development specialists, business leaders and
industry representatives. Topics will include “wicked”
environmental problems; putting a value on ecosystems; business
leadership; assessing and
monitoring sustainability; motivating communities to sustained action;
and urban and rural environments that protect the natural environment
and foster biodiversity.
Wellington is the vibrant political
and cultural capital of New Zealand - and our conference venue, Te Papa
Tongarewa – The Museum of New Zealand, is on the internationally
acclaimed waterfront, in the very heart of the city and entertainment
area. The Wellington region has a huge diversity of environments
including off-shore and mainland wildlife sanctuary islands, farming
and forestry, wetlands, wind-farms and green buildings. The wide
variety of field trips will provide the opportunity to see some
hands-on, cutting edge responses to environmental issues.
October
is a great time to visit New Zealand. Wellington’s central location
affords easy access to the rest of the country – north for thermal
attractions and fishing, south for vineyards, whale watching, lakes and
the alpine district (the Southern Alps).
We are looking forward
to welcoming you to our wonderful city for what we are sure will be one
of the best EIANZ conferences yet.

Buchan,
Chair of the
Conference Organising Committee
