AvON's Members, Supporters and Collaborators

Membership

The AvON network includes many different interest groups that share the vision for an Avon river park, as set out in AvON’s charter.

You can become a member of the Avon-Otakaro Network as an individual or as part of a group. We meet every quarter in a forum, which all our members can attend.

Our strategic steering group provides overall leadership. This group is the ‘guardian’ of AvON’s vision and is responsible for bringing the different projects into a strategic plan.

We also have groups of members who share a common interest. These groups help set up or carry out projects within their particular area of interest. Member organisations manage the projects. However one project, the Mahinga Kai Project, is considered so key and central to the AvON Vision that the SSG plays a key role in leading the implementation of this in partnership with Te Rūnunga o Ngāi Tahu.

If you would like to join one of the projects or have an idea for a project, please let us know.
