O Tātou Ngahere conference 2022

Regenerating our landscape with native forest is the mission of this conference. Tāne’s Tree Trust, in partnership with Pure Advantage, is taking O Tātou Ngahere to an important next level to produce a conference that builds on the successful programme of work behind the campaign.

Join to hear directly from the experts in an event that will shine more light on the WHY and HOW of native forest regeneration and management.

There will be various sponsors joining the endeavour, such as Trees That Count who are working to build a movement mobilising all New Zealanders to help regenerate the whenua via an innovative digital marketplace to connect tree funders and planters.

This will be a two-day programme aimed to focus Aotearoa on weaving more native forest back into our working lands.

There is a wide range of speakers – hear from some of the world’s leading thinkers, practitioners and experts on climate change and the native forest of Aotearoa.

Location: Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, 55 Cable Street, Wellington
