CONSERVATION WEEK

20 to 26 April 2026

Naturing works best when everyone’s in. Find simple ways you and your workmates can turn everyday work habits into actions for nature.

SMALL, EVERYDAY ACTIONS HAVE A BIG IMPACT

Nature's had our back since day one. It's time to grab your workmates and return the favour.

Here’s how:

  1. Choose your activity – we’ve got six fun ideas below.
  2. Capture the fun – take photos and videos of you and your crew naturing.
  3. Spread the word – share your activities on social media. Use #AlwaysBeNaturing and tag @docgovtnz.

Each day during Conservation Week we’ll share our favourite post on our social channels, and a few lucky individuals who post will win one of our hand-drawn native wildlife t-shirts! Want to see an example of what you could win? Check out this Instagram post.
