Hapū-led climate adaptation planning

PDP is working with multiple BOP hapū to support climate change adaptation. This includes working with Te Tirohanga a Toi trust, with whom we are supporting two east coast hapū in climate adaptation planning for their marae and papakāinga. This includes participating in wānanga to share various knowledge to support whānau in decision making. We are also undertaking natural hazard risk assessments focused on coastal erosion, flooding, geotechnical risks and overland flow paths that include hīkoi (site visits) to incorporate mātauranga-a-hapū into the risk assessment process and recommendations of next steps.
