New Zealand SpeakersProfessors Brenda and Robert ValeBrenda and Robert Vale are professorial research fellows at the School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. Their 1975 book The Autonomous House is widely recognized as a basic text in the field of green building. Through the 1980s the Vales designed a number of very low energy commercial buildings and social housing schemes in England. In the 1990s they wrote Green Architecture, completed the first autonomous house in the UK and received the UN’s Global 500 award. They also designed the award winning zero-emission Hockerton Housing Project. They later developed the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) which has since been commercialised. The Vales’ latest book Time to eat the dog? deals with the realities of sustainable living, and will be published by Thames and Hudson in June 2009.
Craig PocockCraig has lived and worked extensively in design and project management in New Zealand, Jordan, Palestine, India and the United States. He has fourteen years of professional practice as a landscape architect. Much of Craig’s design work focuses on applying the collective knowledge of traditional sustainable practices from the Middle East, Central Asia as well as contemporary sustainable North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Craig has been involved in a number of critiques and lectures at Philadelphia University and Yale University Schools of Architecture on the subjects of cross cultural design and sustainability. Craig has been the examiner for the “sustainable landscape design” paper at Lincoln University for four years. Craig has also worked with the NZILA to write the guides lines to landscape sustainability for the NZILA design awards and associated articles. He has also recently been published internationally on the subject of “Managing the Carbon Impact of Landscape Design and on Climate Change management strategies for IFLA”.

His work experience spans a variety of challenging leadership, marketing/sales, entrepreneurial and management roles across several industries. Nick started off as a geographer, completing an MA (Hons) at Canterbury University, initially with the intention of an academic / teaching career. While research ing his MA thesis, he was tempted by the commercial world and did not look back, working in a range of organisations varying in size from US based Fortune 200 company, large New Zealand corporates, and four years with his own company. In the mid 1990’s he returned to the University of Auckland to complete an MBA to further develop his financial / commercial skills.
Garry PellettGarry is Head of Properties at BNZ. He has been involved in the Corporate Real Estate area for 30 years in a variety of roles covering the traditional property management disciplines of facilities, lease and project management. Over time Garry has participated in a number of strategic and tactical projects including the 1984 fitout of 1 Willis Street, Wellington (State Insurance Tower) and construction of many new premises from Queenstown to Whangarei prior to the sell down of the BNZ’s portfolio of branches.
Having been involved in the Industry for such a long period of time,(at least three property cycles!), Garry has seen the development of the outsourcing of both property and facilities management and the resultant focus on customer relationship management. His team of 6 at BNZ is responsible for the delivery of all business occupancy responses and the management of both P & L and Capital expenditure.
He is one of the two project owners of BNZ’s corporate and support businesses who have relocated staff into three new buildings located in Auckland and Wellington during 2008 and 2009. These three buildings have been designed and built to achieve NZGBC 5 star green star design and interior ratings.
Garry strongly supports the concept of Properties being a significant contributor to business enablement by facilitating the convergence of space, people, culture, technology and sustainability.
Dorothy WilsonRecognised in New Zealand as a strong advocate for living and working sustainably, Dorothy Wilson spent 12 years as a Councillor on Waitakere City Council, the last six as Deputy Mayor, co-leading the introduction of its Eco City direction. After stepping down from politics she has continued actively promoting practical ways that communities, business and government can reduce their footprint while retaining their quality of life. An international and national speaker on sustainability, she brings a wealth of experience in wise resource management, optimizing resilience and how to make short term decisions, recognizing the need to think holistically and take long term effects into account. Ten years ago she substantially retrofitted of her own house to demonstrate what steps people can take to help prepare for the uncertainties of climate change and peak oil.

LOCATIONWelcome to Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand, offering a unique blend of heritage and culture, cafes and restaurants, accommodation, shopping and nightlife, all within an easy stroll.
While there are many things that make Wellington a very special place, the waterfront is definitely the jewel in the city’s crown. As you will discover within this site, the diversity and excitement that is Wellington, is very much reflected on the waterfront - the city’s playground. Getting around Wellington is easy as it is so compact.
Wellington’s population is currently 163,824 and the population of the Wellington region is 451,700. The Wellington region (including Kapiti, Porirua, Hutt Valley and Wairarapa) has the third highest population, containing 11.3% of New Zealand’s total population.
