Tō mātou pōari
Our board
We work with the five papatipu rūnaka of Aukaha to protect the mauri of the environment and support them to exercise their role as kaitiaki. We do this by providing professional planning advice on behalf of mana whenua in their role as treaty partners with councils and central government.
Aukaha is owned and governed by five papatipu rūnaka: Waihao, Moeraki, Puketeraki, Ōtākou, and Hokonui.
The Aukaha board is made up of appointed members from each of the rūnaka, and one independent director. Together these governors provide direction to Aukaha to ensure the consultancy remains well positioned to advance manawhenua aspirations, and advocate for the betterment of people and place – in this generation and beyond.
