As Hine Raumati departs and Takurua approaches, our March fish surveys have come to a close. From late February through March, hapū within NKONWM came together to carry out our annual fish surveys across the Wairua Catchment. This kaupapa plays an important role in helping us understand and protect the health of our waterways.

Integrating mātauranga Māori and science drives sustainable environmental solutions, safeguarding our ecosystems and water health for future generations.

Collaborative partnerships protect waterways like the Hikurangi Repo, combining shared values and mātauranga Māori to drive environmental change.

Kaitiaki collaboration brings mātauranga Māori and science together to restore waterways and protect taonga species like tuna.

Restoring the Hikurangi Repo with fish-friendly gates protects tuna, balances farming needs, and honours its cultural significance.

Upskilling in GIS Story Mapping empowers NKONWM to share our mahi, strengthen connections, and protect waterways for future generations.
