Reconnecting Northland is a connectivity conservation programme which acknowledges that nature is better when connected. The alliance recognises that habitats and species function best as part of a large, interconnected network that also sustains the livelihoods of people.
The programme and vision are focused on intergenerational ecological impact and delivering sustainable change across the four wellbeings.
- Social
- Cultural
- Economic
- Environmental
The vision of this alliance is:
'In three generations, Northland is a flourishing tapestry of abundant and resilient natural ecosystems.'
To grow biodiversity and see Northland as a flourishing tapestry of resilient and abundant ecosystems, we must first address the systemic issues. Reconnecting Northland creates opportunities to empower communities to achieve the ecological restoration aspirations for generations to come.
The alliance supports the formation of community collectives, called tapere, to achieve landscape-scale change and facilitate the development of collective vision and action.
