The Breaking Wave: Oceans reform in Aotearoa New Zealand

Publication date: June 2022

Authors: Greg Severinsen, Raewyn Peart, Bella Rollinson, Tracey Turner and Phoebe Parson

This research report examines legislative and administrative reforms to better manage New Zealand’s oceans. The report looks at what is going wrong in the marine environment and how systematic change could occur on a variety of fronts, including worldviews and principals, the management toolkit, how we structure our legislative frameworks, and how we design our institutions. It is intended to frame a wide-ranging conversation, not to make hard and fast recommendations. It concludes by presenting four quite different starting points for what whole of system reform could look like for the moana.
