The health of the Wairarapa Moana has rapidly degraded and has achieved Ramsar international conservation status. We have gathered information and perspectives from local Māori and other community members in order to assess and monitor the health of the lake. We found overarching community goals for the lake and created a framework which physically demonstrates the interrelation between mauri, Ramsar criterion, community goals, and elements of the Wairarapa Moana
