I have worked as a Policy Planner in Local Government on Community Outcomes and Long Term Council Community Plan under the Local Government Act 2002 (New Zealand). My new work relates to Public Health.

Wikipedia has been an exciting learning curve. I enjoy to fill in the gaps and add links in establishing pages that my education points out.

I accepted Baha'u'llah's claim to be a Manifestation of God in 1992 and work to call myself a Bahai since then. I had a Baha'i marriage and my wife is a Baha'i who was born in North China. Our son attends childrens classes, devotional meetings and feasts.

Examples of some work I have published. http://www.swktodc.govt.nz/pdf/comm_outcomes/summary_highlevel_strategies_2006-08.pdf Collaborated in http://www.swktodc.govt.nz/community/outcomes/draft_SOD_report.asp http://www.swktodc.govt.nz/council/publications/ltccp.asp http://www.swktodc.govt.nz/community/outcomes/outcome_stmts.asp Hobbies http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=RoddyYoung
