The Nature Positive journey

While every organisation and project is different, our approach generally follows these steps, with a focus on building capability and creating partnerships to support the long-term journey of nature recovery.

Throughout these steps, we are inspired by te ao Māori, indigenous knowledge systems, and community values, which recognise the interconnection of people and nature.
