Strategic Direction
Whāia te toi huarewa o te auahatanga , hei kete toitoi manawa mō Tāmaki Makaurau
Seek the pathway of creativity as a kete of inspiration for Auckland
Our strategic direction is guided by our kaupapa; Tāmaki Makaurau, a city alive with creativity. To achieve this, we work to create a stronger sector voice, build understanding of the sector’s needs, and encourage a collaborative strategic response to those needs.
Our strategic priorities and outcomes are informed by our whakatauki, Seek the pathway of creativity as a kete of inspiration for Auckland, and supported by the five pou of our mahi.
Our pou provide the conceptual pillars for our action; convene; advocate; activate; disrupt; decolonise. We follow a defined process for strategy activation, and evaluation to measure our Impact. Our Investment Policy guides our use of funds to support initiatives that contribute to our strategic priorities.
Our strategic priorities define our key areas of activity in the sector.
