Aotearoa New Zealand’s economy depends on healthy natural systems but without long-term planning and investment, our natural infrastructure is at risk.

While the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission develops a 30-Year Plan for built infrastructure, The Aotearoa Circle and our Partners are working towards a complementary plan for our natural infrastructure - the foundation for our shared prosperity.

Through the 2025 Fenwick Forum, we’re convening leaders from business and government to co-create a 30-Year Natural Infrastructure Plan including identifying a pipeline of high-impact, investable projects as well as policy, funding and governance settings required to protect and restore our natural capital. The intention is to socialise the resulting plan in December 2025.
