Cook Islands Development Agency of New Zealand

CIDANZ is a community-led development agency fostering cooperative start-ups and collective thinking. We facilitate social, cultural and economic development by working with individuals and families in Pacific communities to participate in enterprise initiatives that generate financial wellbeing. We are currently working with local start-up business families, it is a model for driving regional and national sustainable development. This is achieved through providing a collective of social enterprise start-up programmes (oneBASKET, oneBODY, oneHERITAGE, and oneMARKET). These enterprise programmes aim to enable self- reliance through enterprise ownership that helps people express their cultural knowledge, skills through sustainable products and services.
