Te Mana o te Taiao, the Aotearoa New Zealand Biodiversity Strategy 2020
Consultation began in 2018 that led to the development of the discussion document, Te Koiroa o te Koiora. The discussion document set out proposals for inclusion in a new strategy, including a vision, values and principles, long-term outcomes, goals and system shifts.
Public consultation ran between August and September 2019. Alongside written submissions, there was a series of public workshops and hui.
Consultation on Te Koiroa o te Koiora led to the development of Te Mana o te Taiao, which is the first part of the Aotearoa New Zealand Biodiversity Strategy.
The implementation plan will be developed collaboratively with central and local government, Treaty partners, and stakeholders.
