About Us
Here in the Waikato, we have a remarkable opportunity – an opportunity to realise the powerful possibilities of our region: to sustainability develop a region of abundance.
The Waikato Wellbeing Project is a regional initiative to achieve a more environmentally sustainable, prosperous and inclusive Waikato region by 2030. Mātauranga and Te Ao Māori (Māori world view) principles are embedded Waikato Wellbeing Project.
The following describes the 10 Waikato Wellbeing targets we believe are most likely to lead to an environmentally sustainable, prosperous, and inclusive Waikato region by 2030 and beyond.
Our Theory of Change
A Theory of Change describes the strategies, actions, conditions and resources that facilitate change and achieve outcomes. It explains how particular activities or actions will lead to particular outcomes. In a simple sense, it is an “if: then” explanation of what we do and how it works.
Our Theory of Change builds on the vision, mission, purpose and goals of the WWP, and helps to identify what action we will take to contribute to these. It helps to clarify what value we will add, how we will work as well as framing our stakeholders’ expectation of our impact.
Our Theory of Change also provides the framework for how we measure our progress and value. Our measurement framework is set out in the implementation section of this plan.
