About New Zealand's Biological Heritage National Science Challenge
Our National Science Challenge aims to enhance and restore New Zealand’s land-based and freshwater ecosystems – on the conservation estate or in private ownership – by deepening our understanding of which species we have, and seeking science-based solutions to dealing with threats: pest animals and insects, weeds, pathogens, and climate change. We consolidate and focus research happening in these areas across New Zealand.
