Phase I research
During 2014–2019, we increased our knowledge about our coasts and oceans, produced new tools for marine management, built relationships with stakeholders and Māori partners, and developed the concept of EBM for Aotearoa.
During 2014–2019, we increased our knowledge about our coasts and oceans, produced new tools for marine management, built relationships with stakeholders and Māori partners, and developed the concept of EBM for Aotearoa.
We identified ways for people to get involved in making decisions about the management and future of Aotearoa New Zealand's marine estate.
MoreWe developed ways to measure the values New Zealanders have for the marine environment.
MoreWe investigated how human activities and environmental change can affect marine ecosystems.
MoreWe developed and trialled tools to support EBM. These tools help us understand how management decisions can affect marine environments.
MoreWe worked with Māori to capture their needs and aspirations for marine management, and to unlock the potential of mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge), resources and people.
MoreWe looked at how EBM might be implemented and what changes will be needed to implement EBM in the future.
