Counting for Change The 2017 New Zealand Census of Women on Boards is the initiative of two researchers, Professor Judy McGregor, Head of School of Social Sciences & Public Policy at AUT, and Dr Rosanne Hawarden, businesswoman, director and currently Chair of Governance New Zealand Inc. This New Zealand Women on Boards research project is a census of women directors on the boards of public companies listed on the main board of the New Zealand Stock Exchange as at the end of January 2017. It consists of 2 reports, each examining a different segment of the raw data to give a richer understanding of how board diversity is changing in New Zealand.
