Public Policy Seminar Series

We have been holding Public Policy Seminars since October 2003. The series aims to disseminate the results of our research and to foster discussion with individuals from other organisations. Our seminars provide a forum for informed debate on important public policy issues. Through our seminars, we aim to make existing knowledge more accessible for policy debates in New Zealand.

Our seminars are attended by people from diverse backgrounds who want to stay informed on economic, social and public policy research. Seminars are held in Wellington and are free to the public. You do not need to register for seminars to attend. You can simply turn up on the day.
