Critical Step 1.2.4: Cultural indicators of lake health and resilience
Project team:
Lead: Maui Hudson
Project description:
We will identify and test cultural health indicators with mana whenua in Lake Wairarapa based on key lake attributes such as water clarity. We also work with the multi-agency Wairarapa Moana Group through a value driven consultation process with local iwi to identify, define and develop a cultural health index for Lakes Wairarapa and Onoke.
