Taonga Tū | Heritage Bay of Plenty (TTHBoP) is working with heritage partners, all three councils and other interested partners across Western Bay of Plenty and Tauranga City to develop a regional Heritage Strategy:  Heritage Together – Kotahitanga | Orokōhanga Poutama.

Over several years, TTHBoP has been building relationships across the region and holding hui and wānanga within the heritage sector, including with councils, local business and community. Input from the region’s heritage sector strongly indicate the industry wishes to work openly and transparently towards developing a collective community-led heritage strategy to better understand the region's heritage requirements and to grow the sector’s heritage and historical profile.  
 
Your participation in this survey will take us that much closer to achieving our dream of a more vibrant, active and connected heritage sector towards bringing our stories alive.
