Sponsors
Bank of New Zealand
One of the biggest challenges currently facing Auckland is responding to the demands of ongoing growth and change. The future economic and social well-being of New Zealand’s largest city requires the provision of affordable housing. However, the challenges of providing this in a rapidly growing city are varied and complex and require the private sector, local and central government to join together in developing the way forward. As the largest banker of community housing organisations in New Zealand, the Bank of New Zealand is proud to join support the New Zealand Council for Infrastructure, Community Housing Aotearoa and Auckland Council to provide an integrated and practical development and planning resource for housing providers, to ensure Aucklanders have access to quality housing as the city grows.
