Building Resilience In A Cost-of-Living Crisis
Everyone deserves to live well, in just, healthy and resilient communities, within the boundaries of a liveable planet.
Many New Zealanders are facing insecurity and economic hardship due to the cost-of-living crisis. Damaged ecosystems and a less stable climate are major and growing drivers of rising food, water, energy and insurance costs.
Sufficiency - which strengthens wellbeing, while reducing overconsumption - provides a pathway through the economic, energy and ecological crises we face. GoZero can help you build resilience at the household and community levels, support local businesses, and take collective action to build resilient, thriving systems for all.
