Interactive visualization of trustee interlocks across NZ charities. Trustees serving on multiple charity boards are connected through their shared positions. Cross-platform badges identify trustees who also serve as NZX company directors, public sector appointees, or iwi governance roles.
Connections shown reflect current board positions from the Charities Services register and cross-platform data from NZXplorer, PublicData, and IwiData. Shared positions do not imply conflicts of interest or coordination.

About this network: This visualization shows trustees who serve on two or more charity boards simultaneously (interlocked trustees). Circles represent trustees and squares represent charities. Circle color indicates cross-platform roles: indigo = charity-only, blue = also an NZX director, slate = also a public sector appointee, red = also in iwi governance. Square color indicates charity sector. Node size reflects the number of connections. Gold ring highlights cross-platform trustees. Data from the Charities Services register.
