2011 Hauraki Gulf Forum

Tuesday, 9 August 2011
10am – 5pm
$30 (includes lunch and morning/afternoon tea)

Join us on Tuesday 9 August at the Auckland Museum to explore the findings of the 2011 Hauraki Gulf State of the Environment report.

Every three years the Hauraki Gulf Forum is required to provide a snapshot of the environmental health of the Gulf and the way we are managing it. This year our report set out to answer some important questions:

• How far from a natural state is the Gulf currently in?
• What are the biggest stressors to the Gulf system?
• Do we know enough about what is going on?
• How can we recognise the relationships tangata whenua have with the Gulf?
• Are we integrating management or working in silos?
• Are our management responses enough to make a difference?

Join leading researchers to hear these questions being discussed and consider the latest thinking about how we could value and benefit from healthy, natural systems. You’ll also find out about the latest trends in our populations of resident whales, seabirds and marine life in the Gulf.

The seminar is being hosted by Auckland Museum in its auditorium from 10 am to 5pm, followed by an official launch of the report with invited guests. The public are welcome to register.  Seating is limited. The cost is $30 and includes a lunch, morning and afternoon teas.
