Скачать или смотреть Kiwi training programme invests in people at place

Meet Ngatokoa. Ngatokoa lives in Taranaki and was part of a team that was preparing for the translocation of kiwi from Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari to Taranaki Mounga in April 2024. He was also involved in the kiwi training kaupapa run by Save the Kiwi and funded by Jobs for Nature.

Jobs for Nature has enabled Save the Kiwi to create a training programme to teach people at place the necessary skills they need to care for kiwi. While the purpose is kiwi, the focus is the people involved – like Ngatokoa.

Alongside the recent kiwi transfer from Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari, the Save the Kiwi team worked alongside mana whenua from gifting and receiving iwi to teach them a range of kiwi handling skills.
