A symposium followed by a creative residency is to be held mid to late January 2011 in New Plymouth, Aotearoa New Zealand. The symposium will be held at Owae Marae, and seeks to bring a range of knowledge groups together to investigate the cultural roots of climate change and seek out poetically pragmatic approaches to encouraging the cultural and behavioural shifts required.

The SCANZ 2011: Eco sapiens creative residency participants include Sue Page and Janine May, Jo Tito, Andrew Hornblow, Dhyana Beaumont, Lanfranco Aceti, DodoLab (Andrew Hunter with Lisa Hirmer), Karen Ingham, ÆLab (Gisèle Trudel with Stéphane Claude), Josephine Starrs and Leon Cmielewski, Angelo Vermeulen, Justin Morgan, Jonah Marinovich, Nina Czegledy (our International Research Fellow) and Janine Randerson, Keith Armstrong and James Muller, Ramon Guardans. Dr Te Huirangi Waikerepuru, Roger Malina and Erich Berger of Arsbioarctica will be involved in the hui, to be held at Owae marae. Julian Priest's Slow Flow project is also a partner project, and will immediately follow the SCANZ 2011 residency.
