Action for Biodiversity in Hurunui, Community Meeting at Greta Tavern
23 August 2023
On the 23rd of August the Trust held a community meeting/presentation to members of the public.
The focus was on presenting the Hurunui Zones of Action Biodiversity Resource that was formulated by Ecologist James Lambie and Environmental consultant Michael Bennett with the added addition of local knowledge and expertise.
The evening was a positive one with inclusive interactions from the public with many questions and concerns/queries brought to light. As this document will be forever evolving and developing it was paramount to get more feedback and input from the community.
The hope is that this resource will be used between advisors, individuals and organisations to empower but also take advantage of the prolific biodiversity/environmental opportunities we have in the Hurunui, that is actually considered a “hot spot” for biodiversity.
