On Saturday 19 September 2026, at 1pm people from across Aotearoa
will come together in Auckland to stand up for nature and defend
conservation land.
The Luxon Government has waged a war on nature over the last three
years and this attack on conservation land is the last straw. The
Government is trying to push through the Conservation Amendment
Bill to make it easier to exploit and even sell off public
conservation land. From forests and wetlands to rivers, coastlines
and mountain ranges, the places that belong to Aotearoa are under
threat.
But we've stopped attacks on nature before.
Fifteen years ago, tens of thousands of New Zealanders marched to
stop plans to mine the most highly protected conservation land in
Aotearoa – and we won. Now it's our turn to stand together and
defend the wild places we love.
Bring your friends, whānau, tramping buddies and community groups.
Whether you're passionate about wildlife, conservation, climate,
hunting, fishing, tramping or simply protecting the places that
make Aotearoa special, this march is for you.
