The characteristics and impacts of landfill leachate from Horotiu, New Zealand and Maseru, Lesotho: A comparative study A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Science at The University of Waikato by Thabiso Mohobane 2008 Abstract Landfills are a potential pollution threat to both ground and surface water resources. This study focuses on two landfills, the Horotiu municipal waste landfill, near Hamilton, New Zealand, and the Maseru landfill in Lesotho. The Horotiu landfill is located less than 50 metres from the Waikato River and also sits on a shallow (< lm to water table) aquifer. In Lesotho, the Maseru landfill is 4 km from a river and 2 km from a water reservoir and rests on a huge aquifer. Over 5000 people depend on groundwater in the area between the landfill and the river.

  • Arts and Culture Strategy
    WELLINGTON CITY COUNCIL ARTS AND CULTURE STRATEGY December 2011 Te toi whakairo, ka ihiihi, ka wehiwehi, ka aweawe te ao katoa. Artistic excellence makes the world sit up in wonder. 1. Introduction Wellington is a creative city that welcomes and promotes participation, experimentation and collaboration in the arts. It has a tolerant population that is passionate and inquisitive. We acknowledge the unique position of Māori as tāngata whenua and the Council values the relationship it has with its mana whenua partners. Much of what makes New Zealand art unique lies in what makes New Zealand unique – our indigenous culture. As the capital of New Zealand, we are the seat of government and home to an international diplomatic community that connects us to the world. Wellington provides tertiary training opportunities in all art forms; has the highest rate of attendance in cultural activities1. Wellington’s arts and cultural environment is a strongly interconnected weave of: arts organisations (of many sizes); individual arts practitioners; volunteers; audience members; the general public; funders/supporters; and industries such as film and media. Wellington is fortunate to be home to many leading arts organisations and businesses that deliver world class experiences, products and services; attract and retain talented people; and provide essential development and career pathways for arts practitioners in the city. However, the current financial environment and other factors are damaging our arts infrastructure as organisations face reduced income from sponsorship, community trusts, and in some cases, public funding. This is constraining their ability to develop and deliver to their full capability, and some organisations may struggle to survive long term.
