What are the Lottery Manawatū / Whanganui Community committee outcomes?

The Manawatū / Whanganui Community committee outcomes are:

  • people in the community have increased opportunities to connect with each other through locally-led activities
  • programmes, activities or projects focus on the strengths of participants, rather than fix problems, and are led by those who receive benefits from the programmes, activities or projects
  • increased collaboration (formally working together on a shared single goal) between the community organisation and/or members of the community
  • Māori customs, language, and/or world-view are meaningfully integrated into the community sector and the delivery of services, particularly where the organisation operates with a kaupapa Māori.
