Waimakariri Community Development Strategy

Waimakariri Community Development Strategy 2025-2035

The Council's Community Development Strategy frames the role that Council plays in creating communities that are safe, caring, inclusive and empower people to thrive, through:

  • bringing people together to address community-identified issues and opportunities, to make the Waimakariri District an even better place in which to live, work and play
  • facilitating the removal of barriers, so that all local residents can access and participate in local services, supports, recreation and employment.
  • supporting the groups, organisations and services that operate in our District, so that they operate effectively and are sustainably resourced
  • facilitating local access to advice, information and education that affects positive social outcomes for local residents.
