2018 New Zealand Masters Games Final Report

Department: Community and Planning

 

 

 

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  

1      This report, for noting, provides the Committee with an update on the 2018 New Zealand Masters Games, in particular detailing participant numbers, participant satisfaction and financial results.

2      The New Zealand Masters Games is held in Dunedin every two years. In recognition of the contribution the Games make to the Dunedin economy, the Dunedin City Council financially supports the Games, and has an underwriting agreement should the Games make a loss.

3      The 2018 New Zealand Masters Games achieved higher participant numbers and satisfaction than the 2016 event.  It has forecast a $10,500 surplus, and therefore there is no request for the Games to be underwritten.

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Committee:

a)     Notes the 2018 New Zealand Masters Games Final Report.

 

BACKGROUND

4      The New Zealand Masters Games is a multi-sport event offering participants an opportunity to compete and socialise in a range of sporting and social activities. The New Zealand Masters Games philosophy is one of participation with competition being important but not all-important. Entry is open to all, irrespective of ability or skill and without requirement to be registered as a member of a sporting organisation. The Masters Games joins athletes together with the common purpose of enjoying their recreational pursuits in an atmosphere of universal friendship and camaraderie.

5      The New Zealand Masters Games Ltd owns the New Zealand Masters Games event, with Whanganui and Dunedin being franchise holders. The Dunedin (New Zealand) Masters Games Trust was established in 2008 to manage the Dunedin Games on behalf of the Dunedin City Council which hold the franchise rights to the biennial event in Dunedin up to and including 2036.

6      Dunedin’s first New Zealand Masters Games in 1992 attracted 3,742 participants in 36 sports. In February 2002 Dunedin experienced its largest Games to date with 8,120 participants in 70 sporting disciplines.

 

DISCUSSION

Masters Games Participants:

7      The 2018 New Zealand Masters Games attracted 4,513 competitors; an increase of 14 participants from the 2016 event. This is a significant turnaround on previous trends for Masters Games and similar events in New Zealand.

Financial Result:

11    The 2018 New Zealand Masters Games was the fifth Games operating fully under the umbrella of the Trust. Under this structure the Council fully funds the salary for the Games Manager and overheads at a cost of $179,700 (two year period 2016 – 2018). All other monies required to run the event are sourced by the Games Manager by way of sponsorship, grants, registration fees and some trading avenues.

12    Revenue from registration fees achieved the forecast budget ($309,600). Securing    the Otago Community Trust as the new naming partner for the New Zealand Masters Games 2018, careful budgeting and planning resulted in a surplus of $10,500.

13    The Games Office contracted local sporting groups to run their sport on behalf of the event and the Games office paid back fees to the local sporting bodies totalling $155,801.

Update on Youth Engagement and Development

Department: Community and Planning

 

 

 

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  

1      This report provides an update on youth engagement and youth development work undertaken by the Community Development team. It includes reports for noting from the Dunedin Youth Council and Youth Action Committee, and seeks approval from Council to take on the "umbrella" organisation role overseeing the further development, implementation and monitoring of the draft Otepoti Youth Vision.

2      The Vision was co-designed by community stakeholders and young people following a long process of consultation. The umbrella role would be undertaken using current personnel resources and funding, with opportunities to partner with other organisations to fund/support the Vision in the future.

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Committee:

a)     Endorses Council’s role as the "umbrella" organisation for the further development, implementation and monitoring of the Youth Vision Otepoti.

b)     Notes the reports from the Dunedin Youth Council and Youth Action Committee.

 

 

BACKGROUND

Youth Action Committee and Dunedin Youth Council

3      Attachments A and B are updates from the Dunedin Youth Council (DYC) and Youth Action Committee (YAC) respectively.  The updates cover the period January to May 2018.

4      Since the DYC report was provided the chair has changed with the resignation of George Sabonadiere due to his other commitments. Khaleeda Jaafar has been elected as the new chair for the next three months.

5      In May the DYC coordinated a quiz night to mark Youth Week, attracting over 70 young people to a fun, alcohol-free event at the Community Gallery.

6      In June 2018 staff will be developing an Operational Manual to better guide and support both groups in the future. As group members can change frequently the Operational Manual will ensure that consistent information is provided. Community Development staff are also working to connect both groups more frequently with other Council departments and activities.

7      In the 2018-19 financial year the YAC will be taking a lead role in working with the DCC and other stakeholders on a “free wall” project within the city, with outcomes aligned to the Ara Toi Arts and Culture Strategy.

Tuia Programme

8      For a number of years the Council has supported rangatahi to participate in the Tuia programme supported through the Mayor’s Taskforce for Jobs. In 2018 two rangatahi were selected following an expression of interest process to participate in the programme. Both are University students, one studying first year Maori and the other is a third year medical student. Both are of Ngai Tahu descent. They have already attended two wananga, the first in Otorohanga and the second in Christchurch in May.

9      As part of the programme the nominees are required to undertake a community contribution project. The two nominees are currently working alongside Ngai Tahu, DCC and Otakou Marae on a mural project acknowledging Dunedin’s links with Ngai Tahu. The two nominees have met with the Mayor and will continue to do so as the year progresses. Community Development staff support the participants throughout the year.

Aspiring Leaders

10    In 2017 the DCC and Otago Community Trust partnered to support two nominees to the Aspiring Leaders forum in Wellington. The forum will be held at the end July with nominations opening in late May. Both organisations have committed to support this again in 2018. Participants will be asked to present to the Committee following their attendance at the forum.

Otepoti Youth Vision

11    In 2011 and 2012 Social Sector Trials were established by the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) in areas of high deprivation across New Zealand. The Trials aimed to reduce youth unemployment, truancy, youth offending and youth drug and alcohol use.  The Trials were three-year long programmes. South Dunedin was chosen as one of the Trial areas.

12    Under the South Dunedin-based Social Sector Trials (locally named BASE) a number of programmes and initiatives were established. These included improved partnerships to support young people, the creation of a database of youth services and positive outcomes in addressing addiction issues. In 2016 central government confirmed the end of its funding for the Social Sector Trials.

13    With the end of the programme, a report, Developing Community-Led, Collaborative Approaches was prepared (the Executive Summary of the report is included here as Attachment C). It highlighted the issues challenging the Dunedin community in improving youth outcomes.

14    A community hui was held at Otakou Marae in November 2016 to identify groups and individuals who could work together on a collaborative approach to address the issues raised within the report. One hundred people attended the hui. Only six were youth.

15    Further meetings were held with a number of stakeholders to progress a community-led approach to supporting youth outcomes. For a number of reasons these did not lead to development of a strategic group or long term planning. One idea raised early on was the development a charter to bring agencies supporting youth together with a collective and well understood purpose. There were varying views on this.

16    It was also identified young people had not been actively engaged in the process of developing a new initiative/approach to supporting youth outcomes. The Council’s Community Development team was asked to engage and support youth to take an active role in any collaborative approach, and facilitate a process with stakeholders to ascertain how a collaborative approach to youth outcomes could be achieved.

17    Between March and December 2017, the views of around 100 young people were sought through a hui for rangatahi, a wider youth hui and focus groups. Youth provided feedback on how they viewed Dunedin (pros and cons) and what was important for them to succeed. Attachment D provides a summary of feedback on the latter. The feedback collated between March and June was provided to organisations, who then asked for some additional involvement by the city’s most “at risk” youth.  This additional feedback was gathered between July and November and provided in December.” 

18    Utilising all collated feedback from youth and other stakeholders Community Development staff developed an initial draft youth charter. This was presented at a co‑design workshop in February 2018, involving youth and representatives from community, health, education and government sector organisations. Once again feedback was sought and from this a smaller group comprising youth and adults revised the draft charter.

DISCUSSION

19    In late March 2018 the revised charter was presented to a community stakeholder and youth meeting and approved in principle. Next steps were also discussed, including seeking input from youth around the use of the phrase “charter”, and a proposal that Council umbrella the proposed charter in partnership with the DYC and YAC.

20    The DYC undertook a short consultation on the term “charter” and confirmed some views that this was not a well understood term by youth. It was agreed that the document developed would be titled Otepoti Youth Vision (Attachment E).

21    The DYC and YAC committed to support the development, implementation and monitoring of the Vision and umbrella this in partnership with Council, if support was provided by Council staff. They also wanted engagement and expertise from outside Council e.g. with the business sector. Both groups saw the Otepoti Youth Vision as an important first step in youth being more visible within the community and actively involved in shaping a more youth-friendly Dunedin.

22    Organisations in support of the Youth Vision include the Malcam Trust, Otago Polytechnic, Youthline, Mirror Counselling, Dunedin Secondary School Partnership, Otago Youth Wellness, Anglican Family Care and Otago Community Trust. Other organisations which have actively engaged with the development process to date, and staff believe will continue to have involvement, include the Presbyterian Support Otago, the Ministry of Education, Public Health and Oranga Tamariki.  All organisations have committed to champion and work toward the goals of the Vision.

23    The proposed joint umbrella role the Council, DYC and YAC would take includes –

1.     Leading completion of the Vision document

2.     Coordinating / facilitating a long term plan with stakeholders to identify and agree key actions to achieve the Vision goals

3.     Widely promoting the Vision to youth, business, and the wider community

4.     Delivering some operational activities under the agreed plan

5.     Acting as a point of contact for information on youth services and supports within the city

6.     Working with other partners to monitor the plan i.e. through hui, surveys, social media etc

7.     Refining the Vision, if required.

24    The DYC and YAC members view their role as champions for the Vision, the key youth voice in any promotion and development.  Both groups would work with Council staff on monitoring activities. Staff would be leading operational activity, and Community Development would commit 0.5 FTE of its current staffing to support the Vision. 

25    Mana whenua have identified the need for Maori youth to be more actively involved in the long term Vision and staff will work with the DYC, YAC and mana whenua to encourage more involve of rangatahi within the Council’s youth groups.

26    As well as undertaking the umbrella role for Otepoti Youth Vision, Council would be expected to take a lead in ensuring it was actively contributing to the Vision through its practice, policies, and engagements with and about young people.

OPTIONS

Option One – Recommended Option: The Dunedin City Council acts as the umbrella organisation for the Otepoti Youth Vision

 

27    The Otepoti Youth Vision has been developed through co-design with youth, and adult stakeholders supporting positive youth outcomes within the city. The creation and ongoing implementation of such a Vision does require allocated resource and a level of commitment by key city-wide organisations, including the Council. The goals of the Vision align with our Social Wellbeing Strategy and the wider, national approach to youth development.

Advantages

·           Council takes a leadership role in supporting positive youth outcomes across the city

·           Council shows its commitment and acknowledgement of the views of youth, and is working in a partnership model with young people which better engages and empowers them

·           Council can continue to facilitate collaborative approaches to youth support, which benefit all young people within the community.  

Disadvantages

·           Operational support is required by Council in taking the umbrella role, although this would come from current resourcing

·           There may be some operational costs not yet identified to umbrella the Vision.

Option Two – Status Quo: The Council continues to support youth but does not commit to umbrella the Youth Vision

Advantages

·           Unbudgeted costs are avoided.

Disadvantages

·           Council could be perceived as unsupportive of youth in its community, and youth issues

·           The goodwill and positive relationships Council has built with stakeholders and some young people throughout the last 18 months could be at risk

·           Progress on the Youth Vision will be hampered as there is no other organisation likely to take on this role. 

NEXT STEPS

28    If the recommended option is approved staff will progress the Youth Vision development, and work with young people and stakeholders on an implementation and monitoring plan. A meeting will be called in July to begin this process.  Regular reporting will continue to be through the Community and Culture Committee.
