The role/Te mahi
As a Research Fellow in the Department of Public Health, you will join a team of highly professional and dedicated staff, to provide research support within a project exploring the health and environmental benefits of sustainable New Zealand diets.

The consultation aims to engage with a range of stakeholder groups to identify potential policies or interventions that could be implemented in Aotearoa to shift consumption towards healthy and sustainable diets, with stakeholders’ feedback on barriers to change and suggestions for implementation.
We will model a selection of interventions identified through the consultation as being the most politically feasible and acceptable to estimate their effect on population health, ethnic health inequities, health system costs, greenhouse gas emissions, costs to the individual and nutritional adequacy.
