Climate Challenges
Climate Connect Aotearoa runs collaborative innovation projects involving multiple parties, to develop scalable climate solutions across four key sectors: Energy, Food, Transport and The Built Environment.
We work with solutions that are equitable and demand-led, while delivering on collective wellbeing and Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
SME Adaptation Challenge
Climate Connect Aotearoa is collaborating with business and government entities to develop a platform with targeted online resources to help small to medium-sized businesses (SMEs) plan for and adapt to climate change, improving resilience and business continuity for the Tāmaki Makaurau region.
Māori-led programmes
To ensure that solutions are informed by the strengths and knowledge of the indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand, as well as ensuring equity in our responses, all of our challenges are being developed in partnership with Māori.
We know that climate change has a disproportionate impact on the cultural, social, environmental, and economic wellbeing of Māori. To address these unique challenges and opportunities, we are establishing Māori-led programmes that will build on Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland's Climate Plan and in particular support Tōnuitanga within the Te Puāwaitanga ō te Tātai priority.
