Choices that count

In collaboration with DOC, Deloitte has mobilised its teams, network and creativity to unlock a fresh approach for nature. Always Be Naturing is a three-year campaign designed to serve as a catalyst for connecting with nature in new ways – not just ‘out there’ but with the people and places that surround us wherever we live and work. And critically, it gives us all new ways to support nature, from new partnership structures to product collaborations, and everything in between – together, we’re creating a new wave of conservation innovation.

Waikato-based K’aute Pasifika Trust is supporting Pacific people and underserved groups by offering a holistic suite of social services delivered under Pacific models of care, driven by a mission to improve health and wellbeing outcomes for its communities.

At Deloitte, our shared values of hāpai tangata (fostering inclusion), mahitahi (collaborate for impact), manaaki (take care of each other), arataki (lead the way), and mahi pono (serve with integrity) underpin everything we do. Central to this are initiatives where we can support our communities, such as Deloitte Grow.

Climate change and biodiversity loss are global challenges demanding collective, cross-border solutions. The Deloitte global network fosters collaboration and knowledge-sharing across countries and industries, including sustainability, where experts unite to create meaningful environmental impact, including in New Zealand. Inspired by this genuine commitment and willingness to collaborate, Florence Arke connected with Louise Aitken, Sustainability & Climate partner at Deloitte New Zealand. Sharing a passion for environmental solutions, Florence jumped at the opportunity to expand her expertise beyond Europe.
