The regional ActivAsian partners Aktive, CLM Community Sport, Harbour Sport, Sport Auckland and Sport Waitākere conducted an online survey exploring the effect of COVID-19 restrictions on Asian communities’ physical activity and wellbeing. A report on the survey results was released in April 2022. It provides helpful insights for the sports and recreation sector as New Zealand finds itself dealing with changing norms due to the pandemic. To view the full report please click the link below.
