In this section I list the items that I have written – mostly – for publication in the popular media. In each case I have sorted them according to the predominant “hat I wear”. Where my role on the Auckland District Health Board is leading, the item is listed under “Health Commentary”. Where I adopt a more academic approach informed by my association with the University of Auckland, the item is listed under “Policy Analysis”. And, finally, where the work is strongly related to my role as Chair of The Helen Clark Foundation, the item is listed under “Think-tank Perspective”. Articles in this section are displayed chronologically or can be viewed by category.
