- The Amazing Place youth engagement strategy
- dc.description

In 2013 the Christchurch Central Development Unit developed a youth engagement strategy to reconnect the children of Canterbury with Christchurch's central city.
A series of competitions was developed to provide young people with an opportunity to be involved in the design and reimaging of the city. The competitions were a huge success, with over 7000 local young people taking part and contributing ideas for aspects of their future city. This case study chronicles the design and roll out of the competition and supporting engagement activities.

- Contractor safety inside the cordon
- dc.description
- CERA took over the management of Christchurch's central city cordon two months after the February 2011 earthquake. During its peak the cordon area represented the largest construction site in the southern hemisphere. This constantly changing, high-risk environment required strict health and safety processes including regular, compulsory contractors meetings and the enforcement of stringent cordon rules. The low number of health and safety incidents over the cordon's lifespan has been directly attributed to these sustained and thorough processes.

- Cordon access: An overview
- dc.description
- Following the February 2011 earthquake, a cordon closed off most of Christchurch's central city. A monitored pass system was implemented by CERA to provide limited, safe access to business owners, tenants and residents. The cordon was regulated by the New Zealand Defence Force with support from the New Zealand Police. As dangerous buildings were demolished or made safe, and aftershocks decreased, controlled access was allowed for the general public. This was considered to be an important step in the city's psycho-social recovery.

- Challenging demolitions: The Hotel Grand Chancellor
- dc.description
- Christchurch's 26-storey Hotel Grand Chancellor was badly damaged in the earthquake of 22 February 2011. The building was on a visible lean and fears that the building would collapse at first hampered Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) work in the area. USAR teams worked quickly to stabilise the Grand Chancellor in the first instance and it needed further stabilisation before it was deconstructed. Later, Fletcher Construction carried out the deconstruction over 11 months under the supervision of CERA's Significant Buildings Unit.
