NZ Env Hlth Wiki Established
The NZIEH has set up a wiki* Environmental Health Knowledge. Use it to share your knowledge and/or experience for others to benefit from. One way of doing this is by posting the outcome of a discussion you may have generated on the Institute's email group HealthProtect.
*A wiki is an easy-to-use website with pages that many people can edit together. It's kind of like Wikipedia, but just for specific interest groups
Our mission is to be a major influencing force for implementing and creating environmental health policy as it affects environmental health in New Zealand.
