  • Water safety tips for students

    Here are some tips you can share with students about water safety: 

    • Always check the weather forecast before you go out. Conditions can change fast. 
    • Never swim or surf by yourself or after drinking alcohol. 
    • Watch out for strong rips and currents at surf beaches – look out for gaps between the waves and discoloured water near the shore. If you are caught in a rip do not try and swim against it, raise your hand and call for help.  
    • If you’re swimming at a beach, look for an area with lifeguards and only swim in that area. This area is marked by yellow and red flags. 
    • Only swim at a depth that is safe for you. If you're just learning to swim or you're not a confident swimmer, stay where the water is shallow and your feet can touch the bottom. 
    • Don’t swim in your clothes or shoes as they can weigh you down and can be dangerous. 
    • Check very carefully before jumping or diving into a lake or river, especially if you’re not sure what’s below the surface. 
    • Always wear a lifejacket when boating or fishing (and make sure the people you’re with are wearing them too).

  • ENZ calls for funding proposals for New Zealand-China research partnerships

    The New Zealand-China Tripartite Partnership Fund 2022 offers funding of up to NZD 20,000-30,000 for a partnership project, with the call for proposals open until 1 March 2022.

    The fund supports new or existing research partnerships between New Zealand and Chinese universities. There are usually three universities involved – two from China and one from New Zealand.

    The Tripartite Partnership Fund, administered by ENZ, has a pool of up to NZD 100,000 in 2022 for research partnerships in the arts, humanities, social sciences, sciences and applied sciences. Designed to encourage strategic academic relationships, it supports the creation or development of the partnership rather than funding the research itself.

    With the global COVID-19 pandemic restricting international travel, the fund welcomes innovative ideas. Current investments include digital technology services, communications platforms, translation costs and journal access. 

    A New Zealand-China Tripartite Partnership Fund forum, held virtually in November 2021, aimed to encourage academics and institutions to think about reaching out to eligible Chinese universities to discuss the potential for collaboration. More than one hundred participants heard about the value of the partnerships the fund had supported in the 15 years since it was set up.

    Professor Gary Brierley, Chair of Physical Geography at the University of Auckland’s School of Environment, says the fund has helped his team of river scientists to achieve things in partnership that would not have been possible alone.

    They initially collaborated with colleagues from Qinghai and Tsinghua Universities to study the Sanjiangyuan area on the Tibetan Plateau, which contains the headwaters of the Yellow, Yangtze and Mekong rivers.

    “The emergence of lifelong friendships accompanied steps taken to integrate local knowledge and field science to protect environmental values of the Sanjiangyuan or Three Rivers Source Zone,” Professor Brierley says.

    “Our extended family built upon shared commitments and passion for the remarkable landscapes and ecosystems in this part of western China. Critically, it's been great fun – a wonderful, shared adventure.”

    Dr Jun Lu, Professor of Biomedical Science and Pharmacology at Auckland University of Technology’s Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences, said the fund had helped set up his work on cancer immunotherapy with Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Xinjiang University.

    He says the forum has proved “a great platform for PhD students to learn how to start collaboration and seek possible research projects, jointly pursued by researchers from both China and New Zealand.”

    Funding proposals are due by 1 March 2022. Download the New Zealand-China Tripartite Partnership Fund 2022 Guidance and  Call for Proposals and the Proposal Form.  Send your completed proposal as a PDF, and any questions, to china@enz.govt.nz.
