  • Cq Stocktake: Developing Cultural Capability to Succeed in New Zealand
    P a g e | 1 CQ STOCKTAKE: DEVELOPING CULTURAL CAPABILITY TO SUCCEED IN NEW ZEALAND REPORT ON THE RESPONSE TO THE SUPERDIVERSITY STOCKTAKE FORUM 8 MARCH 2016 Sponsored by 618996_1 P a g e | 2 FOREWORD FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF AUCKLAND COUNCIL – STEPHEN TOWN Auckland Council was a proud supporter of the working conference, Response to the Superdiversity Stocktake: What Next? which followed the Superdiversity Stocktake. New Zealand now has the highest rate per capita of Immigration in the OECD. 70 per cent of those migrants settle in Auckland. Auckland is home to people of more than 200 different ethnicities, with Māori, Asian and Pacific peoples making up almost 50 per cent of the population. This makes our city one of the most ethnically diverse in the world. Auckland Council’s goal is for Auckland to be a strong, inclusive and equitable society, ensuring opportunity for all. We want to be ‘the world’s most liveable city’. We know that diverse and tolerant cities enjoy improved social cohesion, innovation, higher productivity, economic growth and robust governance. What will make Auckland great is our ability to engage with, leverage off, and benefit from the super diverse talents of all Aucklanders. Change requires real openness of thinking, courage, and a willingness to step out of our comfort zones. Change requires that we understand our limitations and develop new skills to help us do things differently. The biggest risk we face is we’re not changing fast enough. The conference heard from leaders in business, government and academia on the organisational, policy and leadership challenges inherent in this journey.

  • UC Campus Developments
    UConnect UC Alumni and Friends Newsletter, July 2013 In this edition: Campus developments UC QS Five Star ranking Innovation and Research Alumni benefits UC Careers Kit Events and more UC campus developments The University of Canterbury, like the rest of Christchurch, is in full recovery mode and is steaming ahead with a range of exciting and significant developments that will place the University in a strong position for the future. We have launched a new marketing campaign, “UC More, Feel More, Do More”, established an innovation hub for students, developed a careers kit to help students envisage their career pathways, and launched a Quake Centre to work with industry on earthquake engineering projects. We’ve seen a record number of PhD students enrol at UC this year and we have retained our QS Five Star ranking. You can read about all of these developments – and more – in this newsletter. The University has also released draft plans for the possible development of the perimeter of the UC campus. There is no guarantee these developments will go ahead as they need to be funded from external sources. However, we are excited by these plans, which could include a UC Research and Industry Zone, an archives facility and a boost to student accommodation at Bishop Julius Hall. The briefing document can be found here. For those of you who have been on campus recently, you will have noticed the extensive refurbishment of the area under the James Hight building. Known as the Undercroft, this area is now a vibrant, sophisticated student lounge with a selection of cafés and retail outlets as well as areas to relax in.
