Nominations are open for Northland Regional Council scholarships designed to encourage future environmental leaders and champions.
There are eight scholarships, each worth $3000.
The annual scholarships support students to undertake study, research or training that relates to council’s environmental and regulatory functions.
The scholarships have a specific aim to build Māori capacity with four of the eight scholarships earmarked for Māori. NRC chair Penny Smart says of the remaining four scholarships offered this year, one will be set aside for a student undertaking study, research or training related to council’s land or water functions.
