Webinar: Standing Our Ground: Where the Gene Technology Bill Stands and Why It Matters

When: Thursday, April 16 at 7:30pm

Where: Live via Zoom


A year ago, the Gene Technology Bill posed a serious threat to organic farming, our export markets, and New Zealand's clean-and-green reputation. OANZ responded with science, economics, trade and legal expertise, backed by a community of supporters who refused to look away.

While the Bill has stalled, the work isn't done. Join us as we take stock of where things stand and look ahead to where we want to go.

Our panel covers the full picture: Associate Professor Peter Wills on the political and scientific history of gene technology in Aotearoa, Scott Lawson reporting back from OANZ's recent Wellington parliamentary delegation, Professor Jack Heinemann on what good gene technology regulation could actually look like, and Noel Josephson on the commercial opportunity New Zealand protects by holding the line.

Hosted by Brendan Hoare. Free to attend. All welcome.
