Resources
Research. Learning. Things worth sharing.
We ask a lot of questions in our mahi. Sometimes we commission research because we need to understand an issue better. Sometimes we learn through the projects and people we work alongside. And sometimes we develop something that’s simply too useful to keep to ourselves.

Why we commission
research
Sometimes the first useful thing we can do is learn.
We commission research to help us understand issues better and make funding decisions. But once that knowledge exists,
it shouldn’t only be useful to us. So we share what we can – for practitioners, communities, researchers, other funders and anyone else asking similar questions. Take what’s useful.

Submissions /
where we stand
Sometimes we put our
name to something.
We’re not usually the people leading advocacy. Often, the strongest voices belong to the people and communities closest to the issue.
But there are times when we can use our position to support those voices, contribute evidence and say clearly where we stand based on that evidence.
Annual reports / transparency
The numbers and the story.
Our annual reports bring together where our pūtea went, who we worked alongside, what happened, what we learned and what we’re thinking about next.
Knowledge
goes both ways
The things here represent some of what we’ve been learning. They aren’t the whole picture.
If you’re working on something connected, have research we should know about, see something we’re missing or think there’s a conversation worth having, tell us.
We’re always learning too.
