Outdoor Recreation Council of Aotearoa

Who we are

A collective of like-minded organisations using sport, the outdoors, nature and adventure as the key mechanism for youth development.

ORCA is a coalition of outdoor recreation and education providers, safety and guild organisations who wish to provide cohesive, collective, and collegial influence on behalf of all such outdoor organisations that build well-being through youth development in the outdoors. ORCA (Outdoor Recreation Council of Aotearoa) is a not-for-profit entity formed as a consortium of organisations whose primary interests, underlying values and motivations are to influence, through advocacy, enablement and direct representation, the best interests of New Zealand organisations that build wellbeing for youth, using the outdoor natural environment. ORCA offers a collective interface and direct conduit for central, regional and local government agencies and outdoor recreation managers and administrative decision makers to talk with those who know what matters most in outdoors youth development, as they know and work in the sector.
