Recreation Conference 2024

Our flagship conference, Recreation Conference brings the recreation sector together each November.

The Recreation Conference 2024: Manu Tukutuku invites abstracts that address the critical theme of fostering a robust and sustainable recreation sector amidst growing external challenges. The manu tukutuku refers to the kites that have traditionally be used as a form of recreation by Māori. They are influenced and moved by pressures within the external environment and require skilled leadership to understand the conditions and effectively adjust to keep the kite soaring high.

Anga whakawaho - What are the external influences that impact our mahi, what should we know about them and how should we lead?

Environmental, economic, technological, societal, legal, political environments

Anga whakaroto - What makes a strong and successful recreation sector adaptable to external pressures and welcoming of all users?

Join us to explore these perspectives!
