I've done a lot of research sort of relating to this subject matter as
it pertains to New Zealand. It's mostly available here:

http://newitmake.org.nz/en/podcasts/all/audio

I sort of had the idea to write up something myself, but then I
remembered I'm too lazy to do that. Anyone from New Zealand
planning/thinking to go to this? Submitting a paper?

I'd be happy to assist in what way I could.
