Creating the first computational model of Aotearoa-NZs food system that captures environmental, economic, social, and cultural aspects of wellbeing will enable policy and business to evaluate the holistic impacts of change. The model will be co-designed with national and regional policy-makers and food sector stakeholders to ensure it reflects stakeholder values and is relevant for end-users. In partnership with Wakatū, a hapu-based organisation, the model will be applied to support assessment of the food system in Te Tauihu; develop a pathway towards a regenerative food system; and test the scalability of indigenous species and practices in a culturally appropriate manner.
