What success looks like by June 2026

  • NZSL workforce needs identified, with agreed collaborative actions
  • Government Departments progressing NZSL Capability Plans
  • Public service agencies including material about NZSL use and service availability within their annual reports
  • Education and health system improvements underway
  • A draft indicator framework developed
  • Increased visibility of NZSL
  • Annual Strategy reporting setting clear baselines and accountability
  • A clear forward pathway established through the development of the next Action Plan.

These early steps will build the foundation for achieving the NZSL Strategy vision of 'everyone, everywhere, every day' by 2036.
