The Kaipara Moana Remediation Programme is the largest harbour restoration programme of its type underway in New Zealand. It represents new models of co-governance, planning, collaborating and problem-solving to restore the health and mauri of the Kaipara Moana. Our Vision: The mauri of Kaipara Moana is restored and protected and its significance – for Kaipara Uri and all New Zealanders – is recognised. The vision was set by the parties who signed a Memorandum of Understanding - Ministry for the Environment, Northland Regional Council, Auckland Council, Ngā Maunga Whakahī o Kaipara, Te Uri o Hau and Te Runanga o Ngāti Whātua. Our mahi is guided by Four Pou. Each of the Pou individually represents challenges and opportunities, while together the Pou represents KMR’s journey towards achieving success. The project is about working together, collaborating and looking at the harbour as a whole. It's the start of a generational change.
