Workstreams

Beyond 2025 Southland is the long-term planning workstream of Southland’s Just Transition Work Plan and the updated Regional Development Strategy (SoRDS).

The goal of the Beyond 2025 Southland plan, developed with our people for our people, is:

“Southland has updated its Southland Regional Development Strategy, which works towards a good life for all. The plan has strong community support”.

The plan, which builds on the previous work of the Southland Regional Development Strategy (SoRDS), has 16 workstreams within five areas of focus. Each workstream has a clear objective and its own bespoke approach. Some will have work groups established to guide the process; piggy back on an existing group or will facilitate the delivery of key research, data and insights.

The process to develop the Beyond 2025 Southland plan will take 18 months and will require multi-stakeholder partnership with councils, mana whenua, the business sector, local communities, other key stakeholders and central government.

This plan cannot address and solve all issues currently in the region. There is already a lot of work happening and we’ve identified who is already doing what, where the gaps are and the greatest value this process and plan can play. It’s key role will be to provide a regional view and context with a clear vision taking Southland Murihiku forward into the future.
