BioSense works to restore, protect and enhance ecological wellbeing.

We are a team of committed and passionate scientists and biosecurity specialists with experience and expertise in ecological management, and research.

Our small but highly-skilled and multi-faceted team of experts are agile and responsive, with the knowledge, and infrastructure to benefit a range of projects. Our collaborative approach enables us to scale up and down, depending on the project or response and tap into a deep well of resources and specialities. 

The diversity and expertise within BioSense and throughout our networks enable us to provide outcome-driven solutions that are driven by best practice and innovation. We also firmly believe that collaboration is essential for successful outcomes and are proud to work with iwi, community, and other experts to deliver the best results possible for our environment.  

BioSense delivers robust and reliable biosecurity management services and environmental research strategies that support Aotearoa’s biosecurity readiness, response and long-term management strategy. 

We understand that knowledge and best practice are constantly evolving and we specialise in research, science and technology development to help inform and deliver more effective ecological management. 

We believe a multi-disciplinary approach is essential for delivering robust ecological outcomes, and work with biologists, social scientists, Māori and community groups to engage and draw together Western science and Mātauranga Māori to ensure joint goals are successfully achieved. 

BioSense recognises the importance of mana whenua as kaitiaki of the ngahere and continually seeks to work alongside the relevant mana whenua of an area in the co-development and delivery of projects, to share knowledge and provide joint learning. The focus is on empowering the current generation and inspiration for the next generation. We believe a hapu-based approach and ownership within conservation will bring intergenerational wellbeing for tangata whenua and the ngahere and of all Aotearoa.
