Community Surveys

"Taking the Pulse" was a research exercise conducted in 2009 where 28 key decision makers in the region were interviewed, along with a number of community people engaged through personal interviews and focus groups.  The purpose of the research was to gauge community views on the needs and priorities of the Waikato, which are seen as relevant to our funding responsibilities.  It assisted the Trustees in establishing community thoughts around the impact the Trust was making in the region, and the results of the research have informed the direction of the Trust.
