The Tāmaki Taiao Alliance is a groundbreaking partnership delivering landscape-scale regeneration across the Tāmaki Auckland region.
We're inviting organisations to join us as alliance partners. This is the opportunity for your organisation to demonstrate environmental leadership while supporting healthy communities and nature-based jobs across the wider Tāmaki Auckland region. Strengthen your brand, engage your people and meet growing stakeholder expectations.
Join Auckland Council, Foundation North, Office Max and the Department of Conservation in this first initiative of its kind for Tāmaki.
Our shared vision is for Tāmaki to be alive with birdsong and connected communities.
This initiative brings together seven high-impact community conservation projects to provide thriving, connected ecosystems and engaged communities.
Projects cover a variety of geographical locations, delivering landscape-scale regeneration, from the Hauraki Gulf to Manukau Harbour and Kaipara Harbour, from Rodney to South Auckland. Together, they will reconnect about 350,000 hectares of the region’s fragmented ecosystems, including island havens, ngahere (native forest), repo (wetlands), awa (streams) and urban green spaces.
We need your help to fund this work.
The Alliance is grounded in taiao ora, mauri ora*. When nature thrives, people thrive. Thriving populations of our native manu (birds) will symbolise our success.
The Alliance will establish a community of practice to foster shared learning and collaboration among partners, including community, mana whenua, business, philanthropy, council and government.
*“Nature is life”: a vision shared by Te Pu-a-Nga Maara
