Vision

In envisioning a thriving and resilient future for the Upper Clutha Catchment, our holistic catchment health framework embraces the profound interconnection of people and place, recognising the intrinsic value of Te Taiao. Grounded in community leadership and collaboration, we are committed to fostering a collective sense of responsibility for the well-being of our environment. Our vision extends beyond scientific data; it encompasses the lived experiences, cultures, and aspirations of the communities within our catchment.

This framework serves as a compass, guiding environmental restoration activities and investment with a keen understanding of the delicate balance between ecological health and human well-being. By weaving the wisdom of local communities and the expertise of diverse organisations, we strive for a sustainable and harmonious coexistence between nature and society for present and future generations to come.

Join us on this journey as we strive to deepen our connection to Te Taiao and pave the way towards a healthier, more sustainable future for the Upper Clutha Catchment. Together, let's embark on a transformative endeavour rooted in respect, reciprocity, and resilience.
