Land and Water Forum

The Land and Water Forum is a diverse group comprising primary industry representatives, environmental and recreational NGOs, iwi and other organisations with an interest in freshwater and land management. The Forum was asked by the Government to conduct a stakeholder-led collaborative governance process to recommend reform of New Zealand’s freshwater management. In September 2010 the Forum reported back to Ministers identifying shared outcomes and goals, and options to achieve them. It then undertook public engagement on its recommendations throughout New Zealand and in April 2011 provided Ministers with its final findings, recommendations and thoughts.
