Other community funding opportunities

While we have managed to secure $5 million for the work detailed above, there is always more work that can be done in the catchment to improve water quality with the help of community funding.

If you have a community-led project that will help protect, enhance, or promote Otago’s environment ECO Fund could help get your project off the ground.

The ECO Fund supports not only on-ground works and education or awareness raising projects, but also administrative support.
