The Jobs for Nature fund has helped to grow many amazing organisations delivering impact across environmental, social, cultural, and economic domains.

With Jobs for Nature funding due to close in 2025, funded organisations will need to adapt their operating and financial models in order to become financially resilient and sustainable in the long term. The Ministry for the Environment are supportive of organisations utilising their funding on transition planning. Ākina is an approved Jobs for Nature supplier.

This webinar is for any Jobs for Nature funded organisations who are looking to reduce reliance on grant funding.

Join the Ākina team for a free webinar to learn about how we can support you on your impact and sustainability journeys. The session will cover:

How to develop an Impact Model for your organisation - a strategic tool for organising your business functions around your impact goals, and telling your impact story to a range of stakeholders.
Showcase our approach for expanding the revenue base for impact-led organisations, helping them to achieve greater financial resilience and long term sustainability.

Ākina have previously supported several Jobs for Nature ventures on their impact and sustainability journeys. Joining us for the webinar will be Environment Hubs Aotearoa (EHA), who will share how their work with us has helped them to grow their business and their impact.
