Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"?

Krissy Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Since 2009, Neighbours Aotearoa has been encouraging people to connect at a street level. Whether it's a friendly wave, sharing tea or crops, or hosting a neighborhood gathering - these connections are the building blocks of stronger and more vibrant communities.

We want to grow this movement but we can't do this alone! As a small yet dedicated team, we need your support to reach even more neighborhoods in 2024.

Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"? Your role is simple: spread the message about Neighbours Aotearoa in your community, town, city, neighbourhood, or street.

We've got packs filled with flyers and posters ready to send across the motu. You know your community best, so you can decide where they go.
All you need to do is fill out a quick form, and we'll send a physical pack to your doorstep in early January!
Or tag someone who you think would be keen.

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
