The future of land and water management in the Wairarapa is in your hands.

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

Ruamāhanga Draft Whaitua Implementation Programme (Draft WIP) is a document that reflects details which support the Whaitua committee and the people of Ruamāhanga catchment towards the vision “Wairarapa – where the water glistens”.

The draft WIP is a result of four years of gathering knowledge from a variety of sources which helped us, challenged us and changed us. This journey started with gaining an understanding of community values and we have held these values close on this journey.

We would like to invite you to provide feedback on the draft WIP before it is handed over to the Regional Council.
