Stories from across the moana
Throughout history, people have used storytelling to create connection and pass on knowledge. Here, we share stories of communities around the world where New Zealand’s partnerships are making a difference.
Climate change is affecting us all. In many countries, people are facing the loss of their homes and livelihoods or are struggling to access fresh water and food. We can only meet the challenge by working together as a global community. By joining forces we can reduce the impacts of climate change, build resilience, and support those who are bearing the brunt of the crisis. Watch the video to find out how New Zealand’s Climate Finance is contributing towards a global solution.

Weaving the strands
Just as a basket relies on its weave for its strength, our climate future depends on countries acting together. New Zealand aims to fund actions that make us all stronger – building on our commitment to kaitiakitanga and shared stewardship, and supporting peace, prosperity and resilience.

Pacific focus, global impact
Climate change is one of the gravest threats to global security and prosperity, and ultimately our wellbeing. Our support for other countries’ efforts to slow climate change and to build resilience helps others in need, and protects our own whānau in the long term.

The detail: our support for climate action
New Zealand supports countries and communities that have less resources to respond to and recover from climate change. Together we are working to secure a sustainable future for all – limiting greenhouse gas emissions and building resilience.
