State of the State New Zealand 2016

A model for social investment

We propose a package of reforms the government should work towards to realise the aspiration for social investment in New Zealand. Our proposed package of reforms represents a clear departure from today’s operating environment for the social sector. We suggest a structural reconfiguration some may find challenging, while acknowledging that we don’t yet have all the answers.

We have cast out five years ahead, in part, because there is so much current activity in relation to social investment, and in part, because there are multiple pathways to realise our end point.
