Investment priority: Successful outcomes for New Zealand’s children from their families/whānau, communities, and neighbourhoods
Research question
In what ways can we ensure children are actively engaged and participating in the development of their digital world to maximise opportunities for their cognitive and social development? In particular:
- how does participation in the digital world influence children’s cognitive and social development?
- what skills, knowledge and capabilities do children need to manage, engage and benefit from participating in the digital world?
- how can family, educators and society effectively support children’s involvement in the digital world?
Indicative funding
(excl GST)
$0.6 million per annum for four years.
Investment priority: New Zealanders have healthier lives and age well through better leverage of social, economic, and cultural factors
Research question
What constitutes successful, cost-effective intervention programmes for setting healthy habits for life and how can these be applied into new pilot intervention(s)?
Could include potential mediators of a healthy lifestyle such as diet, exercise, stress, sleep, addiction, work and living environments.
Indicative funding
(excl GST)
$0.4 – 0.6 million per annum for four to six years.
Research question
How do we enable New Zealand’s ageing population to have more meaningful lives within the community?
In particular:
- what kinds of retired lives do New Zealanders want and how can this be supported?
- how do major events earlier in life (such as changing employment and family structures), along with wider societal changes, impact on quality of life in later years, and how can these be addressed?
Indicative funding
(excl GST)
$0.4 – 0.6 million per annum for up to six years.
