dc.description.abstract | Māori are the indigenous people of New Zealand and throughout the country, local government relationships with hapū (a group or family from a common ancestor) and iwi (a post-colonial term for groups of hapū who have common ancestral links or share a geographical location) are critical to the sustainable management of natural resources. Here we describe an initiative formed in response to an incursion of brown bullhead catfish (Ameiurus nebulosus) in Lake Rotoiti and (as of December 2018) Lake Rotorua, two of the ancestral lakes under the mana whakahaere (a self-determination and decision-making role) of Te Arawa Lakes Trust. The programme involves a full-time staff member from Te Arawa Lakes Trust working directly alongside the Bay of Plenty Regional Council to progressively contain the catfish population in Lakes Rotoiti and Rotorua. To date, this project has removed over 80,000 catfish from the lakes, generated significant research findings, engaged over 500 volunteers and delivered an educational programme to over 1500 school students across the district. This partnership approach to a biosecurity project has strengthened relationships between local government, iwi, hapū and the wider community while delivering positive environmental outcomes. | en_NZ |
