Abstract
This report builds on earlier work conducted by the Agribusiness and Economics Research Unit (AERU) at Lincoln University; and it assesses the contribution of Antarctic-related activities to the Canterbury and New Zealand economies. These previous projects have shown that these contributions are significant (Saunders et al, 2007; 2013). The report, as in previous reports, also considers issues around the Antarctica activities for the businesses and other stakeholders as well as new initiatives of Antarctic-related activities with potential to benefit the Canterbury and New Zealand economics in the future.
The research methods used in this project included interviews with senior staff members from key organisations to obtain information and data about Antarctic-related activities, and an economic impact analysis of Antarctic-related activities in Canterbury and New Zealand was conducted.
