In this webinar, Jim Sinner, manager of social science at Cawthron Institute, presents findings from research on how catchment groups can be supported and encouraged to protect and enhance local waterways.
There are many different expectations about what catchment groups can and should do, creating a risk of misunderstanding and uncoordinated activity. This webinar presents recommendations to help bridge the different perspectives to improve alignment and increase effectiveness. We also highlight a significant opportunity for catchment groups, land users and tangata whenua to work together on their shared goals.
