Experience
Freshwater is a taonga and is at the core of the cultural identity for tangata whenua. The availability of high-quality fresh water is fundamental to the protection and restoration of our threatened aquatic ecosystems. Intrinsic to our landscapes, our freshwater environments support our way of life and the health and well-being of our people and communities.
From conducting stream surveys to developing collaborative monitoring programs, we offer innovative ways to understand and manage New Zealand’s natural water bodies.
We have a strong record of working with community stakeholders and iwi to ensure we manage these precious resources to achieve the desired economic, cultural, and environmental outcomes.
