Carbon offset contribution - support local conservation efforts

To minimise the impact of this workshop on the environment and to support local conservation an optional fee is included in registration.

Method of calculating carbon credits
Using carbon calculators (co2.myclimate.org & calculator.toitu.co.nz), an estimated carbon offset has been calculated for the event footprint excluding travel. This is not an accredited process, but it has been setup so that 100% of funds collected go direct to local conservation efforts.

How the funds will be distributed
A New Zealand charitable organisation with carbon offsetting activities (e.g. native tree planting) will be selected by the 2023 organisers as a recipient for collected funding. The total collected and donated as well as the recipient or project will be shared with workshop participants.

Payment Options

Credit Card (Mastercard or Visa).

Purpose for this policy is to help ensure a safe and comfortable meeting for all workshop attendees and to reduce the spread of illness at the workshop and within the local community.

Masks are welcome and encouraged to be worn at all workshop activities. Face masks remain an important defence against COVID-19. Please bring your own mask but a limited supply will be available at the registration desk. Masks with N95, KN95 or P2 ratings best.
Test for Covid-19 before attending the workshop. We encourage you to test before traveling and throughout the week. Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) are available for purchase from pharmacies. If you are travelling from overseas, you should collect a free pack of RATs at the airport on arrival into New Zealand when clearing customs. There will be a limited supply of donated RATs at the registration desk.
Practice good hygiene. While we encourage you to wash your hands often, hand sanitiser will be available throughout the venue and at the registration desk. Cough and sneeze into your elbow and avoid touching your face.
Physical distancing. Please be aware of how close you are to others and give each other space. No handshakes please.
