This is great news Matt. Thank you for keeping us in the loop. Ngā mihi Allison From: cc-nz-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:cc-nz-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org]
On Behalf Of Matt McGregor Hi all, Earlier in the year, I promised to keep the community in the loop with funding discussions. While the progress this year has not been as smooth as we would have liked, I can now happily confirm that CCANZ’s funding from central government
has been guaranteed, at a reduced level, until the end of June 2014. By way of background: in June 2010 CCANZ received a three-year funding commitment from what is now MBIE to support the rollout of NZGOAL. This commitment expired on 1 July this year. While we understood that this commitment would be rolled
over for one more year, it took longer than expected to have this confirmed. RSNZ has been very supportive during this process, and they are continuing to work with myself and the rest of the advisory panel to secure ongoing funding from a range of governmental
and non-governmental organisations. While we hustle for funding, the basic work of advocacy and outreach continues apace (24 talks and workshops since July 1, I’m proud to say), and there are a bunch of ongoing projects in the works. From my position, I definitely see momentum
building, especially in education, which is where I spend most of my time and energy – though also across culture, heritage, research and government – and I’m very happy to have another guaranteed nine months to keep building on this momentum. Apologies for keeping you all in the dark about this, though I hope you understand that we didn’t want to do anything to prejudice our efforts!
