Urban development
Enabling well-functioning and thriving communities through best practice urban design and development.

Our Urban Development Strategy focuses on how we will continue to positively transform and deliver successful urban development across Aotearoa New Zealand.

Kāinga Ora is enabling a mix of new social and market homes to be delivered across our large-scale projects in Auckland and eastern Porirua. To achieve this, Kāinga Ora partners with developers, councils, iwi, and government agencies.

We recognise the importance of building homes and communities that are resilient to our changing climate.

The Kāinga Ora Land Programme was established to acquire and develop land to increase housing supply and improve affordability in areas of need.
The Urban Development Act 2020 empowers Kāinga Ora to initiate, facilitate, and undertake urban development that contributes to sustainable, inclusive, and thriving communities.
