Going Places is about the economic contribution of migration to and from New Zealand. Can immigration, in economic terms, be more than a gap filler for the labour market and help with national economic transformation? And what is the evidence of the effect of migration not just on house prices but also on jobs, trade and broader economic performance?

Book launch flyer

Building on Sir Paul Callaghan’s vision – creating ‘a place where talent wants to live’ – this book explores how we can attract skilled, creative and entrepreneurial people born in other countries, and whether our ‘seventeenth region’ – the more than 600,000 New Zealanders living abroad – can be a greater national asset.

It would be great to see you there!
