EDNZ has a network right across New Zealand and a depth of membership in public and private sector. That membership is dedicated to improving the livelihoods of the people, communities and businesses that it serves.

The organisation’s broad remit is its strength and potential as we look at more systems approaches to resolving significant issues for our regions, specifically inclusive economic development and addressing the challenges of climate change and changes in the labour market.

As the eyes and ears on the ground at regional level, our members are often the invisible glue to regional development.
