What we do

WaiNZ is a national grassroots organisation that aims to reduce freshwater pollution by using technology to empower the public to be the guardians of our waterways. We are tackling freshwater issues by giving the public the power to record and report on pollution or enhancement of freshwater from anywhere in the country.

The Inspiration

WaiNZ was formed in 2012 when people from all over NZ became inspired to collaborate in efforts to monitor and report on freshwater pollution.The inspiration came from watching the documentary film River Dog (multi award winning NZ doco), a story of one man's struggle to save the river he lives by. You can view the trailer to River Dog here.
