Welcome to PacificTA – the local government initiative that teams New Zealand-based technical experts with their counterparts in Pacific Island countries to share skills and improve the way cities, towns, and villages are run.

The PacificTA – or Local Government Technical Assistance Facility for Pacific Countries – has been running since 2012 and is now administered by Taituarā — Local Government Professionals Aotearoa.

PacificTA helps local Pacific Island managers to run public services such as environmental management (e.g. water and air quality) infrastructure and asset management, town planning, transport planning, and public health and safety programmes such as dog control and disaster management. If there is a need for improvements to be made, PacificTA has the expertise to assist.

We encourage you to get involved in the collaborative PacificTA programme and see first-hand the results that can be achieved when practitioners work together towards a common goal for their community.
