- New Zealand is one of the only countries in the world to recognise cultural sustainability as a key aspect of social sustainability.
- This ensures that the Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi (Te Tiriti o Waitangi) are upheld within the process of decision making.
- Māori principles can help us deepen our appreciation of the environment, sound social structures and a connective view of sustainability.
