On Tuesday 15th December the staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration headed out to Arorangi to put together some ideas on the direction for the Ministry.

To understand where the Ministry was going the Ministry had to know where it had been. Liz Koteka from the Office of the Prime Minister was very helpful in facilitating this exercise.

Two groups were formed - the present and the future. The present group highlighted the areas that were currently being focused on. The future group focused on the direction of the Ministry in the short to medium term and the long run.
