Vision for Wellington
Vision for Wellington has announced:
It’s no secret that Wellington faces challenges. Let’s do something about about them.
Vision for Wellington unites people passionate about Wellington and committed to seeing our city thrive. We’re a bipartisan, collective voice advocating for Wellington and aiming to set a bold direction for the city.
We will facilitate expert-led panels early next year, gathering local thought leaders in areas like innovation, arts and culture, events and hospitality, economic growth, transport, infrastructure, civic leadership and distinctiveness. Wellingtonians will be able to attend, share, and contribute. We aim to inspire, and to be inspired.
Our goal is to co-create a Vision for Wellington – something aspirational and practical in equal measure – and a source of pride and positivity about the city and its future.
Good to see people come together to try and provide the leadership that is lacking at Wellington City Council. The list of founders is very impressive:
- Peter Biggs
- Sinead Boucher
- Mike Egan
- Myles Gazley
- Sir Bob Jones
- Aaron Leech
- Sarah Meikle
- Rob Morrison
- Fran O’Sullivan
- Kristen (KP) Patterson
- Neil Paviour-Smith
- Luke Pierson
- Dame Kerry Prendergast
- Dame Patsy Reddy
- Phil Royal
- Dame Therese Walsh
- Dame Fran Wilde
- Simon Woolf
Two former Mayors, a former Governor-General and one of our top business leaders, plus many more.
I encourage people to sign up for updates. We need to change the status quo, with a positive vision and people who can make that happen.
