Our Vision & Values
At Landcare Research we are passionate about the role of science in fostering a higher quality of life for New Zealanders, while also ensuring our natural environment is protected and respected.
Our vision is: Innovative science for a sustainable future.
We are committed to understanding and meeting the research needs of our customers to achieve influence and impact with the knowledge we develop.
Three key values underpin our work:
Collaboration: Our organisation becomes greater than the sum of its parts by working together and with our partners, by applying and sharing our knowledge; not for its own sake, but for the success and the common good of our community.
Curiosity: We make discoveries that make a difference. We are driven by a passion to go beyond research - not to just know but to help improve, invent and invigorate. When we seek to truly understand, we find.
Clarity: We define our path before we walk it. With our eyes focused on a sustainable future, our past experience and expertise allows us to envisage what needs to be done today.
