Reconnecting Northland’s vision is that in three generations Northland is a flourishing tapestry of abundant and resilient ecosystems.  

We see Te Ao Mārama - The World of Enlightenment, as the recipe for progressing this vision and creating meaningful change in remote Northland Communities. 

Our Connectivity Catalyst model has its roots in connectivity conservation; being that nature (ourselves included) thrives when interconnected. Imagining ourselves as a ‘Connectivity Catalyst’ allows us to respond to both the ecological and the social dimensions of regeneration in our region, which we consider to be a critical, yet missing piece of the puzzle.

As a connectivity catalyst:

We support communities to define their unique, long-term aspirations and the journey towards sustainable self-determination.

We weave the relationships, tools, finance and resources required for Te Ao Marama to emerge, enabling communities to regenerate their lands, waters, and nature-based economies, creating abundant and resilient ecosystems for the benefit of all.

We grow trusted community members on how to access and facilitate their engagement with Te Kete Hononga, our knowledge base of available services and resources.

We partner with like-minded organizations to combine projects, funding, and services into a unified plan that fits each community's specific needs.
