Overview The Local Government Act 2002 requires all local authorities to work with their communities to identify how they want their community to be, and to work with community groups and organisations to work towards achieving these goals. Choosing Futures Waikato is your chance to help create the future you want - the way you want the Waikato region - to be, now and in the future. Choosing Futures Waikato is about all of us talking about what we want our region to be and working together to achieve this. Choosing Futures Waikato is about the future well-being of our community. Find out how Waikato councils and members of the community have worked together to identify community aspirations - Community Outcomes - and how to get involved. Progress made towards achieving the community outcomes will be measured regularly and reported back to the community. A set of indicators has been developed to track progress. Choosing Futures Waikato is sponsored by the local authorities of the Waikato region. To find out more about our region and the issues we may face over the coming 10 - 20 years read our visioning document - "The Waikato - What Does Our Future Hold?" Some work has already begun into looking at ways to improve the coordination of organisations working to create a better Waikato region in the future. One of these projects is Waikato Futures. You can learn more about this, including the results of a stakeholder workshop and a proposal submitted to the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology (FRST) for funding.
