Were you living in Wellington in the ’50s?
Or do you know someone who was?
I’m looking for people to be part of a survey and focus group (Ethics Approval no. 17719), to gather information on life in the 1950s, as part of a Masters degree entitled the ‘Ecological Footprint of Wellingtonians in the 1950s’.
If you are interested or would like some more information please contact Carmeny Field (Victoria University of Wellington ) via email fieldcarm@myvuw.ac.nz or phone (04) 463 6253.
