On the footsteps of kauri forest users with bingo dabbers — a novel participatory mapping method with Aotearoa’s park rangers.
A storymap outlining research where, over the course of almost a year, researchers from the University of Auckland, University of Otago, and Cardiff University reached out to park rangers from various regional parks in Auckland and Bay of Plenty. Engagement with these individuals were carried out via four focus-group workshops — one for each regional park of interest. These four parks were besieged by the same biosecurity risks; however, one was living with existing infestation while the other three had not shown any signs of kauri dieback disease.
