Report: TR 2022/48

Authors: Melissa Hackell

Abstract

Waikato Regional Council undertakes the 'Your Environment – What Matters?' survey every three years.

The survey is designed to measure Waikato residents’ environmental awareness, attitudes, knowledge, and behaviour. The information from this survey is used to:

  • help the council to gain a better understanding of the views of residents regarding the environment
  • understand residents’ awareness of the impacts and effects of people on the natural environment.
  • gather public opinion on environmental issues that contribute to policy development.
  • evaluate current policies and programmes and anticipate public responses to new environmental policies and programmes.
