Te Korowai o Waiheke
Te Korowai o Waiheke is the first project launched by the Waiheke Collective. The project has an ambitious goal: to make Waiheke the world’s first predator-free urban island. The Collective appointed the Te Korowai o Waiheke board of trustees who are responsible for governance, particularly financial and funder accountability. The Te Korowai o Waiheke board in turn appointed three staff to lead the project forward. That project is now largely independent however still deeply connected to the wider Waiheke Collective group, especially through their Collective representative trustees.
The current scope of the Te Korowai o Waiheke project is to eradicate mustelids across the island and to conduct a rat eradication pilot to learn how to eradicate rats in an urban environment.
