Ben Ensor, recently elected as the inaugural chair of Aotearoa New Zealand Catchment Communities (ANZCC), is on a mission to unify approximately 250 catchment groups across the nation.

With ANZCC serving as a conduit between catchment groups and government agencies, Ensor explains the organisation hopes to enhance communication and support for vital environmental projects.
