BIOHERITAGE

BioHeritage is supported and managed by a team of people dedicated to creating real solutions that protect Aotearoa New Zealand's biological heritage. We facilitate research and related activities in the most holistic and effective way in order to create transformational change... In 2019 we were given guardianship of extra funding specifically to research the plant diseases that cause kauri dieback and myrtle rust. Using our ‘BioHeritage' processes we are focusing on accelerating work already being done by government agencies, councils, research providers, Māori and interest groups... Partnership with tangata Māori underpins everything we do at BioHeritage. We strive to uphold the principles and values of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and empower traditional knowledge and processes. We expect all of our investments to rate a minimum of 3 on the Vision Mātauranga scale.
