We strive to be stewards for the integrity of THE KAIKoURA marine environment (Te Tai o Marokura)
Our organisation fosters a cooperative and integrated approach to achieving its objectives, focusing on marine management strategies that incorporate Kaikoura’s coastal values and provide an ongoing kaitiakitanga (stewardship) for community stakeholders. We apply the philosophy of gifts and gains, where each stakeholder gifts concessions to sustain the integrity of the whole marine resource for the future.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
We engage the Kaikoura community in developing practices for improved management of our sea. We ensure the community voice is heard and informed by latest research and agency actions.
