Well, to say the response to Better Future Forum’s launch yesterday has been overwhelming feels like a bit of an understatement … it has exceeded all our expectations!
Our inbox has been flooded with you all subscribing to the website and wanting to be involved. Thank you all for your support, and your willingness to be part of shaping a better, more resilient Aotearoa New Zealand.
Please know that your emails have been received and your offers to contribute are so appreciated. Because of the numbers of these responses, we are unlikely to be able to get back to you all individually, but we will be in touch with you soon.
So what are the next steps? In the next few days we will be sending an email out to everyone who has expressed an interest in being involved. Many of you have told us about your areas of expertise and experience, and the area in which you can contribute. We will let you know how we envisage that working, but we can tell you that it will involve many of you taking leadership roles within your own sphere of expertise. We hope you are up for the challenge!
We are so excited about this initiative and its capacity to connect New Zealanders across all sectors of the community, unified by the desire to create a groundswell for change … could this be a new dawn?
It’s a reflection of the excellent work you have done, BFF team. Thank you!

I’m keen to see how you see Māori as part of the recovery. I think you need to bring innovative and thoughtful thinkers like Matthew Tukaki, business man and CE of the NZ Māori Council, Willie Te Aho and young leaders like Shay Wright? I’m also keen to participate in these discussions.
