Help our future doctors learn about early childhood development
Is your baby due between January – May 2020? Hi everyone! I'm a nurse at Auckland Uni and recruiting new moms.
- Would you be interested in participating in the Human Early Life Development –Integrated Learning Activity (HELD-ILA) helping our future doctors learn about early childhood development?
- Would you be happy for a pair of Medical Students to visit you to assess your baby’s development? The assessment is done with observations and questionnaires. This would involve 6-7 visits each 60-90 minutes in your own home over 18 months.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
