Adventure Voice™
Adventure Voice™ is a dedicated outdoor research community established by the NZ Mountain Safety Council (MSC) and managed by Rangahau Aotearoa Research New Zealand.
Local Prevention Initiatives
The New Zealand Mountain Safety Council (MSC) works closely with council member organisations and partners to access a wide range of data about participation and incidents in the outdoors.
Monitoring Safety Incidents
We closely monitor the overall impact of our prevention work on land-based outdoor recreation safety incidents through a range of mechanisms and metrics. One of these is through tracking the annual trends of participation, fatalities, search and rescue operations, and injuries.
Research & Insights
Research and insights provide us with the evidence we need to focus our prevention effort where it is most needed. We access a wide range of data relating to participation and incidents in the outdoors, and through careful analysis we develop these varied data sources into insights.
