CONSERVATION WEEK

19 to 25 April 2027

Whether you're a community group, whānau, workplace or a bunch of mates, now's the time to start thinking about how you'll team up and get naturing. Let your imagination go wild – if it helps nature, or helps people care about it, you're on the right track.

GO BIG OR GO SMALL, BUT DEFINITELY GO WILD

Conservation Week is for everyone. We know loads of people take action for nature every week, but there's nothing quite like being part of something bigger.

Let your imagination go wild. If it helps nature, or helps people care about it, you're on the right track.

Naturing to consider includes:

  • Run a bake sale for a cause you care about

  • Share nature stories to inspire action

  • Organise a volunteer day

  • Get stuck into a backyard nature project with your whānau

  • Take your weekly team meeting outside.

Conservation Week resources will be available early next year. Keep an ear out or email us at naturing@doc.govt.nz and we’ll be sure to get in touch.

Big effort, team effort, community effort. Nature loves it all.
