Karioi Film Launch
Event description
The Karioi Project is a community group based in the New Zealand surf town of Raglan, working to re-establish nearby Karioi as a seabird mountain. A third of the world’s seabirds call New Zealand home, but their nesting habitats are under threat from introduced predators. The Karioi Project is working to save the seabirds, in the process creating a strong community group with a deep understanding of local ecology.
Karioi tells the story of the group as they work to save the oi, restore the maunga of Karioi, and in the process create a strong, vibrant community group connected to the land and sea around them. The film is presented by Patagonia, who have supported the Karioi Project as part of our Environmental Grants program and is narrated by surfer and Patagonia Global Sport Activist Dave Rastovich.
Please join us for a live Q&A with Dave and Karioi Project Manager Kristel Van Houte, followed by a screening of the film.
