NZADDs was born out of a desire to stimulate more informed discussion regarding the how and why of NZ aid and development work. In particular, NZADDs emerged in response to the current changes in New Zealand’s government aid programme. We are concerned about these changes and so throughout 2011 NZADDs will focus predominantly on this area, even though our area of interest is aid and international development more broadly.

Welcome to NZADDs
Welcome to NZADDs. We’re an independent group of academics and practitioners working together to promote dialogue and critical thinking about New Zealand’s role in international development.
Be it through aid, trade, immigration, or environmental policy (to name just a few), decisions made in New Zealand have real impacts on the the lives of people living in poverty in other countries. If we as a country want to help reduce global poverty and tackle global issues we need considered, well-intentioned policy and practice. NZADDs is committed to promoting this.
