Over the past months the world has changed rapidly around us, and as we work to rebuild our society and our economy we need a bold new direction for Aotearoa New Zealand – one that focuses on the wellbeing of all in society.
On Wednesday 24 June 2020, we hosted a panel discussion moderated by Kathy Errington (Executive Director of The Helen Clark Foundation) with Rt. Hon Helen Clark (patron of The Helen Clark Foundation), Hayley Fitchett (General Manager Master Planning and Placemaking – Kāinga Ora), David Symons (Global Future Ready Lead – WSP), Carinnya Feaunati (Architect – WSP), Holly Walker (Deputy Director and WSP Fellow – The Helen Clark Foundation).
The panelists discussed what it will take to create community connection and eliminate loneliness in a post-COVID-19 world.
