At Summit 2025, be inspired to drive change to shape a more sustainable future by speakers sharing bold ideas, real-world insights and practical actions for transforming our food systems, business, society and minds!

The conference theme is Getting it Right! Sustainable Production and Consumption in Aotearoa. 

Keynote and plenary sessions will cover topics such as transforming business for sustainable development, sustainable food systems, youth actions in the sustainability space, an SDG progress report, and how we can think positively to achieve sustainable development. 

Our event will be geared towards policy makers and practitioners from a wide range of backgrounds, businesses that are moving in a sustainable direction, as well as scholars, community organisations and youths. Understanding what we can learn from Indigenous peoples, especially from mātauranga Māori, will be a central theme of this event.

This event is being hosted by Te Kunenga ki Pūrehuroa – Massey University in conjunction with our partners – Rangitāne o Manawatū, FoodHQ, Environment Network Manawatū and Palmerston North City Council.
