Keep Dunedin Beautiful began as part of the Anti-Litter Council which the New Zealand Government established in 1967. The organisation is now known as Keep New Zealand Beautiful, and Keep Dunedin Beautiful is proud to be one of 31 branches across the country.
Keep Dunedin Beautiful works in partnership with the Dunedin City Council to encourage pride in, and enhance Dunedin’s built and natural environments. We work to educate the community about waste minimisation and recycling initiatives, sustainability best practice, and coordinate environmental projects that include clean-up events, tree plantings, and beautification programmes such as graffiti removal and community murals.
