The University of Otago, Christchurch (UOC)

The venue for this year's conference is Te Whare Wānanga o Otāgo ki Ōtautahi, the University of Otago Christchurch campus.Modern lecture theatres and excellent catering (as well as an onsite cafe for that essential caffeine fix) make this the perfect place to gather, reconnect, and share kai while we hear about the latest research in the nutrition space.

Situated right in the heart of Te Papa Hauora, the city's health precinct, it's also directly across from beautiful Hagley Park, and only a short walk to the Botanic Gardens. Christchurch has a reputation as cycle-friendly and highly walkable city, with an excellent bus network, so the central location of the campus is ideal. The CBD is a haven of street art, has a booming hospitality scene alongside great shopping, and a mix of modern and classic architecture, all within a short distance.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Garden City this November.
