Introduction - Kotahitanga mō te Taiao Alliance
What is the Alliance?
A partnership for environmental leadership across the Buller, Marlborough, Nelson, and Tasman region – connecting people and place together for now and for the future.
Mā whero, mā pango, ka oti ai te mahi.
Through co-operation the work will get done.
This refers to co-operation where if everyone does their part, the work will be completed. The colours (whero / red and pango / black) refer to the traditional kōwhaiwhai patterns on the inside of the meeting house.
Our Strategic Mission
“Creating a connected and aligned region that understands, protects, enhances and future proofs the values of nature critical to the top of the South (covering components of the Buller, Tasman, Nelson and Marlborough regions in the South Island) and that this flourishing nature in turn enriches its communities.”
