Kaipupu Wildlife Sanctuary - Autumn 2020 newsletter

 

 

NEWS FROM THE SANCTUARY

 

 

 

 

CHAIRMANS COMMENT

 

Hello to all our members, volunteers and supporters I hope this newsletter finds you safe and well, and not going too crazy in your lockdown situation. What unusual times we are living in.

As you are probably aware Kaipupu has been in complete lockdown as well. Under level three we are able to do one trap monitoring session which is underway at present. Thank you to the team who are doing this check, it will be a big job after such a long time of no checking, cleaning and resetting of traps. To get this event up and running has involved an enormous amount of work by Trudy and Rachel with consultation with Port Marlborough and DOC, thank you to all those involved who helped get our monitoring up and going again.

During this time we are humbled by the support of our sponsors, members and volunteers.  We couldn't do this without you, so thank you to each and every one.  Now is also the time to support those local businesses that support organisations like ours, please make sure to have a look at our supporters list at the end of this newsletter and support them too!

As people have been saying during the lockdown “look forward to seeing you on the other side” and of course on Kaipupu.

Climate Change Knowledge Broker "Among the coolest top 10 jobs I've seen"

Despite lockdown, we're pressing ahead with recruiting for a significant new role, our "Climate Change Knowledge Broker".

One of our Challenge Twitter followers yesterday described this job as "among the top 10 coolest jobs I've seen". If you feel similarly, we really encourage you to have a look at the job description and to ask for more information should you need it. Applications close 11 May.

*

Can you bridge research boundaries? Can you understand & translate complex data? Are you driven to help NZ prepare for the future? 

The "Climate Change Knowledge Broker" will play a critical role in the Deep South Challenge as a translator between disciplines, enabling connections between different research programmes for maximum impact.

In particular, the Climate Change Knowledge Broker will focus on making the outputs from the New Zealand Earth System Model (NZESM), and associated climate models, accessible to research in other programmes within the Challenge as well as to external stakeholders. 

We're looking for a multi-talented individual who is as comfortable engaging with our researchers and stakeholders as they are developing data products to tell the story of New Zealand's future climate.
