Newsletters and Blogs

One of Motu Research’s guiding principles is its commitment to freely disseminating research findings. Motu insists on a clause in every research contract stating the results of the research will be published publicly, rather than allowing the organisation who funded the research to decide whether the results will be released or not. As part of this commitment, Motu publishes newsletters and blogs to inform the public on recent research.

Newsletters

Motu News is published quarterly. It is aimed at the general public, informing people of current research and other happenings at Motu Research. Check out back copies or subscribe to Motu News here.

Blogs

Motu researchers currently have three blogs.

New Zealand's Low Emissions Future is part of our engagement and communications strategy for the Low Emissions Future project. The blog creates a forum for sharing information and perspectives about the mitigation challenges that New Zealand faces, the assets that we have, the solutions that might be developed or adapted, the lessons we can learn from overseas and the experience that we can offer to other countries.

Agricultural Emissions Dialogue is a forum for discussing agriculture and greenhouse gas emissions, with a New Zealand focus. Contributors from a variety of relevant backgrounds - farming, industry, public policy, and science - and will post regularly on a broad range of topics relevant to agricultural emissions.

Relieving Scarcity is the blog run by research analysts at Motu, however the views expressed therein are those of the authors alone, and are not attributable to any institution.
