Current research and evaluation

A new website on all aspects of housing research products in New Zealand has been set up with support from DigitalNZ.

Some features of the website are:

• Single search access to over 1000 housing-related research items from New Zealand organisations at time of launch. This is expected to increase significantly over the next 1-2 years as more organisations become involved.
• Links to full documents in context on the host organisation’s website
• Diverse sources of information, including New Zealand universities; independent research companies; and Government departments
• Bi-lingual website (English/Māori)
