Our Grantees - Wao Summit 2022: A Festival of Sustainability

The Wao Summit is six days of workshops, kōrero, films, tours and community events about creating tangible, long term social and environmental change. 

The Summit is coordinated by ONE New Zealand which is a charitable trust set up in 2018, with the aim to educate, inspire and enable New Zealand communities to accelerate towards a carbon-zero, regenerative future and beyond.

ONE New Zealand look to inspire, educate and enable communities to help shape a future that looks towards not just a sustainable future, but one where we give back more than we take. 

The focus of the Wao Summit varies each year depending on which direction the levers need to be pushed and pulled to accelerate change. For 2022 the three areas of focus are:

• Greater district wide connection and partnership;
• Food resilience & security;
• Modal (transport) shift.

This will be in the form of a range of conversations aimed at the general public, films, practical workshops which focus on enabling action, community activations and youth specific events.
