Sustainaganza 2023 is a one day forum being held in Te Whanganui-a-Tara in October 2023.
This forum is a hands-on, capability building programme for Aotearoa’s leading change-makers and innovators who are focussed on shaping our future cities.
Our aim is to dispel the echo chambers of industry or sector specific forums and bring together a diverse array of leaders who hold expertise in different parts of the system. All of these imperatives for healthy resilient cities must be considered as an integrated whole in order for us to achieve the significant transformations needed and that requires different ways of thinking and working together.

Sustainaganza Student Showcase
We welcome the opportunity to have students contribute their ideas to this initiative and share their vision – moemoeā for our future cities.
We invite student designers in the fields of Design, Landscape Architecture, Architecture, Engineering, Population Health and Urban Ecology to submit transformative possibilities for the future of Aotearoa – New Zealand’s urban environments.
From master planning to object design we seek projects of any scale that go beyond addressing discrete city problems.
