Paging former ministerial advisors

Richard Shaw is a Professor in Politics at Massey University. He writes:

I’m part of an international project hoping to survey former political (ministerial) advisers from 14 different countries (mostly European, but also NZ, Canada and Australia). I’ve written about ministerial advisers in NZ for years, but now a bunch of us are trying to kick off a large-n study comparing/contrasting advisers’ roles, relationships and policy contributions across countries. 

The survey will take around 15 mins to complete, and all respondents’ data will be anonymised. The project is taking place within the European Union’s personal data protection framework, and we’ve secured ethical approval from the Norwegian Agency for Shared Services in Education and Research.

If you were a ministerial adviser on an events based contractor between 2014 – 2024 and are happy to participate in this project, please e-mail Richard at R.H.Shaw@massey.ac.nz and he will forward you a link to the survey.
