Healthy Home Survey
Hi All !!!! :)
I am Nipuni Wimalasena, a PhD student at the University of Auckland.
I would like to invite you to participate in an online "Healthy Homes" survey. New Zealand’s existing housing stock is subject to rapid ageing and deterioration due to a low replacement rate and a lack of maintenance. Poor housing conditions likely pose potential harm to the health of household occupants. Each year more than 20 children in New Zealand are died by respiratory diseases such as asthma, wheeze, pneumonia and bronchiolitis, which are linked to unhealthy housing.
This survey gathers your knowledge about the property you live in, as well as your perspective about how housing-related factors may cause medical/health problems of you and your family. The survey is being conducted by a research group at the University of Auckland to understand how we can develop housing solutions and alternatives to those health-related issues.
We are seeking for Aucklanders to participate in this anonymous survey and appreciate your kind support and participation. This will take 15 minutes of your time. Your response will be confidential and anonymous. The survey is approved by the University of Auckland Human Participation Committee with reference number 021180.
Your participation in the study is highly valued. Thank you for your attention and time.

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
