Matt's Blurbs |
About me:
I have recently been elected to the Community Board for Shirley Papanui ward, which I'm very stoked about. There's a lot to get my head around, but I'm really looking forward to making a difference.
My main interests are around the environment and organics, community gardening, youth issues, and poverty and access issues.
Please get in touch with me if you've got any ideas or needs that you'd like some help with.

________________________________________________
I have a Ph.D. in Christchurch's social and environmental history, I work as a supermarket manager and I write for the Press. I have been active in local and national community organisations since the late 1990s and remain passionately involved in efforts to transform Christchurch into sustainable Garden City.
You can access my thesis online via the Canterbury University website www.canterbury.ac.nz, through their library catalogue.
In the Public Library you can look up my book 'Cuttings from Paradise' - a selection of my Press columns - and my booklet on establishing a community garden.
Thanks,
Matt Morris
