About Us
Repair Network Aotearoa is a national collective driving behaviour, cultural, and structural change through repair. Underpinned by Te Tiriti o Waitangi, we connect and empower communities, advocate for the Right to Repair, and grow Aotearoa’s circular and repair economy while amplifying Māori-led approaches and research.

Our Strategy: The Five Pou (Pillars) of Transformation
Underpinned by Te Tiriti o Waitangi, Repair Network Aotearoa (RNA) cultivates systems change through collaboration across five interconnected pillars (pou): Community Repair, Repair Education, Repair Economy, Civic Stewardship and Advocacy for the Right to Repair. This strategic framework connects the pou together - like the five fingers of a hand - toward our goals. Collectively, the five pou drive behavioural, cultural, and structural change to grow the economy and the repair movement.
We are committed to elevating the work of repair as a powerful act of restoration - both for materials, te taiao, and for communities. We champion policy that embeds repair as critical infrastructure for a thriving, regenerative Aotearoa.
