World Water Day Photo Competition 2026
About this Event
Enter our Photo Competition in celebration of World Water Day 2026. This year Te Whau Pathway Environment Trust’s theme is WATER IS LIFE…
Water shapes everything — our rivers, our streams, our ecosystems, and our communities. Safeguarding the Whau and its waterways means protecting life itself, now and for the future. Te Whau Pathway is becoming a living example of this care in action — a place where people can see, experience, and connect with our body of water every day.
World Water Day is a reminder not to take water for granted. It’s a chance to celebrate it, value it, and feel inspired to do something — big or small — to protect it.
Snap a photo that celebrates the beauty of the Whau environment and helps raise awareness of water quality in our awa. Together, we can spotlight what we care about, build community pride, and back the protection of this special place.
Grab your phone or camera, hit the pathway, and show some love for Te Whau

The pathway will provide the opportunity for amazing recreational choices and safer and more sustainable alternatives for travel. Nurturing a sense of pride, ownership and kaitiakitanga of the Whau River, one of the jewels in West Auckland’s crown.
Te Whau Pathway connecting communities, nature, and the awa.
