Career Goals

Develop a training program that supports a sustainable use of NTFPs on the North Island. Sustainable here means two things. The industry must be sustainable from both an ecological and economic point of view. In short, those involved must be able to earn a realistic living year after year. Currently, neither of these sustainability perspectives are occurring and I believe the right training program coupled with a harvester driven business model can generate good earnings while providing knowledge-feedback for the training program itself.
