The Chip Packet Project is an Auckland-based non-profit, reusing chip packets to create survival blankets.

The blankets have helped at least 69,000 people who are homeless or affected by natural disasters like flooding.

News and Editorial Director Jessica Hopkins spoke to architect and director of academic reviews at University of Auckland, Professor Diane Brand, about her involvement in the project, and the urgent need to address Aotearoa’s homelessness crisis.
