About Eco-index
We have expertise in Aotearoa New Zealand ecology, sustainability, economics, social science, communication, database infrastructure, artificial intelligence, statistical modelling and strategy. Our 2020-2024 programme is supported by a $3.1 million investment from the government-funded National Science Challenge “New Zealand’s Biological Heritage - Ngā Koiora Tuku Iho” which partners with all of Aotearoa New Zealand’s Crown Research Institutes and universities.
We are creating both a national Eco-index and tailor-made eco-indices for different land management sectors. Our objective is to link current investment in biodiversity with the impact being achieved on the ground and to identify the best investment opportunities for reversing biodiversity decline.
The Eco-index will guide land managers toward incremental investments that can cumulatively create intergenerational impact. In time, the Eco-index will indicate our country’s biodiversity performance, much like GDP indicates economic performance.
