- Summary
- This document is the overarching management plan for Papangaio – Te Wharangi – Manawatū Estuary, including the part recognised as a Ramsar site of international significance. This is not a statutory document and a management plan is only ‘recommended’ by Ramsar. The primary focus of this plan is to ensure there is a strategic approach for everyone to work together and optimise progress towards the vision. This plan was developed through a collaboration of hapū and iwi, community groups and territorial authorities. It is aspirational in nature, serving as an umbrella to guide other management and operational plans and activities that overlap the same area.
