The Christchurch and Banks Peninsula Biodiversity Fund (Biodiversity Fund) has awarded $400,000 to seven community organisations for eight different biodiversity-enhancing projects.
The fund was supported through the Christchurch and Banks Peninsula targeted rate for biodiversity. This rate was established following consultation on our Long-Term Plan 2024-34.
Groups applying had to be a legal entity with a project that enhances indigenous biodiversity in freshwater, coastal or land-based ecosystems. This may involve direct action, education, raising awareness, or supporting an organisation that undertakes these actions.
Eligible organisations could apply for between $20,000 and $100,000 per project.
