Our Vision: Auckland – the world’s most active city.
Aktive is committed to helping people and communities across Auckland to achieve sporting habits for life. As both Sport New Zealand ‘s and Auckland Council’s strategic partner in Auckland, this means investing in organisations and projects that will get more people recreating and playing sport, with focuses on young people and identified communities.
With a region as large, as populated and as culturally and geographically diverse as Auckland, alignment is crucial to get the best for, and out of, Auckland.
Our Strategic Priorities
More Aucklanders More Active
With a particular focus on school aged children and low-participation communities, and an emphasis on introducing and supporting more coaches.
Stakeholder Alignment and Sector Development
Especially shared services, coach development and supporting sporting codes’ capability development.
Spaces and Places
Improving access to facilities and spaces for all Aucklanders.
