NZ population projections through to 2030 For SARINZ By: Gordon Cessford & Bronek Kazmierow B Kazmierow Recreation and Tourism Consulting

Origins Sponsors: SARINZ NZ Oil and Gas Supporters - SARINZ stakeholders and broader network 2

Aim: Identify foreseeable patterns & trends in SAR incidents operational responses through to 2030 Primary objectives: Assess how SAR volunteer response will be affected by projected population changes Identify changes in the nature of SAR callouts over the next 20 years Identify how these will impact training needs 3

1. Approach Model 2. Demand: NZ population 3. Key demographic profiles & projections Aged & tourism 4. Supply Agency profile contrasts: Surf v. AREC Coastguard v. LandSAR 5. Incident type profiles 6. Trends 7. Summary Recommendations 4

Develop and apply a conceptual model Analyse relevant secondary data sources demographic projections incident records other information sources review of relevant literature Undertake projections 5

Demand factors Incident profiles general and targetted Forecasts tourism/recreation other (including census population, age, ethnicity) Supply factors Volunteer profiles and projections Outcomes Equilibria or tension? Directions of change Implications for response 6

DEMAND FACTORS OVERALL SAR OUTCOMES SUPPLY FACTORS Overall NZ population demographic characteristics and projections SAR call-out demographic characteristics national, regional and targeted segments Projections and trends - related to recreation SAR call-out profiles - related to non-recreation SAR call-out profiles SAR volunteer demographic profiles national, regional and targeted segments Projections and trends - related to profiles of different SAR volunteer segments (e.g. Surf-lifesaving, amateur radio operators, LandSAR search etc) NZ recreation participation, preferences, profiles and capabilities -National and regional patterns -Forecast trend NZ tourism -activity patterns and trends - international and domestic tourists Demand Actions EQUILIBRIA or TENSION Resulting from the interaction between DEMAND amd SUPPLY factors The INITIAL RESULTS are baseline levels and patterns of SAR incidents SAR capability/capacity existing features & trends - National and regional patterns - Volunteer training, retention, recruitment status and implications Supply Actions The LONGER TERM OUTCOMES are future readiness, effectiveness and efficiency of SAR response 7

Many 65+ SAR subjects have recreation incidents especially Tramping and Walking in outdoor settings But at 65+ the occurrence of non-recreation dementia incidents increases Dementia: Over 92% urban locations near home, rare anywhere else Closely linked to population home pattern sustained urban SAR pressure

Tourism is a major variable in incident patterns impact is uneven It is independent of NZ population distribution, and impacts more in remote areas It significantly boosts the recreation component of SAR demand New Zealanders will keep travelling for recreation, but this may change in locations

Which profile types are projected for major change in next 20 years? Dementia national level and regional Tourism particularly at regional level Which regions are most likely to feel the strain? 36

For Land incidents, NZ as a whole will experience some tension, although there are some regions more affected: West Coast major (rec. & tourism) Increased visitor incidents, dwindling volunteer capability/capacity Most other South Island regions (dementia/rec. & tourism) Auckland (dementia - although population growth may help) 37

Surf has large numbers (15,000) Extreme proportion of youth (unique) and gender balance (also unique) An opportunity for cross-over training and increased participation? Coastguard? Note the large drop off in female retention an opportunity to learn? Large SAR underrepresentation of females Find the drivers for participation and factors influencing drop-off

Opposite to surf very old age profile Succession issue evident If AREC role in SAR comms is important, then this requires urgent attention AREC members note aging membership, recruitment, changing technology and training as key issues of concern Could this be an extreme model for other SAR sectors as population ages?

Questions: What will be most likely to change in the next 20 years? Which trends are considered to be most important? Scoping opinions to test against our findings and direct us in the last writeup Method: Expert panel assessing 6 trends assessed via online methods 67

1. Increased cost of travel/transport 2. Growth in tourism and recreation activities 3. Aging population structure 4. Increased use of technology 5. Increased population and urbanisation 6. Different funding/resourcing arrangements 68

There will be greater public expectations for immediate and successful SAR response (Score = 4.5) There will be reduction in the 'search' component of many SAR call-out due to better beacons, communications and location technology (Score = 4.1) Some people will put themselves at more risk because of over-dependence on technological devices - resulting in increased SAR callouts (Score = 3.8)

Increased numbers of people visiting natural outdoor areas and parks (Score = 4.3) Increased SAR callouts due to increased numbers of tourists (Score = 4.2) Increased numbers of people engaged in marine recreation (Score = 4.1) Increased SAR callouts from people in easily accessible natural areas (Score = 4.0)

There will be increasing proportions of nonrecreation SAR incidents (e.g. Dementia, Despondent, Missing) (Score = 4.4) There will be increased diversity in SAR subjects/victims, from greater variety in ethnic and interest groups (Score = 4.0)

People will live longer and remain more active, with sustained increase in SAR demands in some areas (Score = 4.1) There will be increased recreation closer to home and in more accessible areas, with an increase in related SAR demand (Score = 4.0)

Increasing 'professionalisation' of SAR will require increased funding sources (Score = 4.1)

Increased costs for SAR operations, training and support (Score = 4.1) Increased costs for volunteers involved in SAR (Score = 4.0)

There will be decreased recreation in more remote areas, with decrease in related SAR demand (Score = 2.2) SAR incidents will decrease overall as people engage in more urban-based recreation types (Score = 2.3) Fewer recreation SAR incidents overall as people use the more accessible and less remote areas (Score = 2.4)

Compulsory 'user-pays' types of insurance systems will be introduced as a requirement for anyone using more remote locations (i.e. backcountry or backwaters) in order to cover SAR costs (Score = 2.5) People travel less often for recreation purposes (Score = 2.7) There will be increasing reliance on professional SAR response agencies instead of volunteers (Score = 3.0)

Examples: Dementia (aging projections) Inshore (ethnicity projections) Tourism (tourism forecasts) 81

Population growth & regional patterns Ethnically more diverse populations & more diverse activities Changing SAR incident demands Aging population structure Less volunteer capacity/capability in certain hard hit regions (e.g., West Coast) or functions (e.g., Radios - AREC) Impact of technology (a two-edged sword?) Growth in tourism and recreation demands regionally Greater resource competition Aligning information needs 82

Importance of volunteer recruitment and retention Role of women & youth One-SAR career paths and training to meet future challenges cross-sector analysis Regional and central resourcing Consider going up-a-cog for certain regions in relation to expected growth in demand Balancing volunteer and professional roles Influencing demand prevention, education and awareness 83

Model provides a useful indicator of the likely future outcome for SAR Volunteer capability cross training and career paths Information drivers integration and management of data fuel projections & strategies for response Opportunities for improving data management and further applied research 84

Main report delivered to SARINZ in June 2010 Included detailed profiles across incident types, subjects and on SAR volunteers 85
