Tonight! Let's explore the new way of doing business.
CONSCIOUS ACTION IS TURNING ONE and we're celebrating a New Way of Business!
There is a new way of business emerging, a way that has swapped competition for collaboration and put people before profits. We're seeing a shift away from a linear model towards a circular and shared economy.
Join us as we host Damon Birchfield from EcoMatters Environment Trust, and Steve Bambury from Conscious Capitalism NZ, to explore not only the future of business but also the present landscape.
A change in our mindset will create changes in the way we approach business. Seeing the challenges as opportunities is necessary in today's world.
As consumers we will learn how to make informed decisions when it comes to supporting conscious businesses.
We will also be sharing the story of this past year and hope you'll join us in celebrating Conscious Action first birthday.
Also at this event:
- mingling + networking
- treats from Hunter Gatherer Gourmet + The Larder Project + Forage & Ferment + Plant Culture
- teas from Fine & Dandy Tea Co.
Conscious Action events are a space to connect with like-minded people, collaborate to come up with inspiring ideas, and celebrate what we are already contributing to the collective.

Harbour Bridge lane closure - protests
Hīkoi mō te Tiriti (March for the Treaty of Waitangi) set off from Cape Rēinga on Monday morning and is expected to reach Wellington next Tuesday. It has now passed through Kaitaia, Kawakawa, Whangārei, Dargaville and is passing through Auckland on Wednesday.
What you need to know today:
- The hīkoi is due to cross the Auckland Harbour Bridge about 9.30am on Wednesday. Two northbound lanes will be closed at some point before the crossing, and remain closed during it.
- NZTA shared at 8:50am Wednesday:
'Curran St northbound on-ramp will be closed shortly, with two northbound lanes on the Harbour Bridge expected to close from approx 9.30am this morning. Allow extra time for likely delays through this area.'
- The hīkoi is expected to go across the Harbour Bridge, in a controlled fashion before marching through parts of the CBD towards Okahu Bay.
The Treaty Principles Bill was introduced to parliament last week and could have ramifications on the partnership between the Crown and Māori. Stuff reporter Steve Kilgallon was at Stafford Park on the north side of the Harbour Bridge at 8.30am Wednesday and shared:
"I just walked through Stafford Park, where there’s about 400-500 people quietly assembled and more arriving; and about 20 police standing over near the motorway off ramp. Lot of Tino Rangatira flags in evidence, local streets very busy with parked cars."

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
