Statement of Intent 2013–2016
This Statement of Intent is produced by the Ministry of Social Development. It sets out how we will work over the next three years to achieve high-level outcomes for the wellbeing of all New Zealanders.
Social development is about addressing immediate needs while ensuring positive outcomes in the future. It is a planned process of improving people’s wellbeing, and of enabling communities to determine how they can achieve wellbeing for themselves.
