Nga Mahi te Taiao is an independent resource management consultancy and project management team based in the East Coast region of the North Island of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Te Kaupapa – the Guiding Philosophy
In Te Reo Maori, Nga Mahi te Taiao refers to ‘working for the environment’. Our kaupapa or guiding philosophy is to help create robust community programs that can provide for -

  • the protection, restoration and enhancement of the treasures of our natural world.
  • the celebration and application of contemporary and traditional knowledge.
  • improved educational opportunities at all levels.
  • the fostering of holistic, equitable and sustainable community development programs.

Nga Take – the Work
Primary areas of focus may be identified under the headings of Research, Education and Development. Current work involves a range of indigenous biodiversity research and restoration projects, environmental education programs and regional development and resource planning initiatives. Our approach involves the integration of a matauranga or science-based analysis with a community participation and kaitiakitanga or ‘guardianship’ approach, thus building a joint ‘bottom line’ foundation that can sustain social and economic change.
