Our goal is to gather, interpret and communicate evidence in order to both diagnose the problems we face and propose new solutions to tackle them.
New problems confront our society and our environment, both in New Zealand and internationally. We aim to address these issues in a manner consistent with the values of former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark, who serves as our patron. We advocate for ideas and encourage debate, we do not campaign for political parties or candidates. Early focus areas include environmental issues, justice reform, and drug policy law reform.
The Helen Clark Foundation is an independent public policy think tank based in Auckland. Launched in 2019, the Foundation publishes research that aims to contribute to a more inclusive, fair, and sustainable society.
