is a service provided by Tauranga Regional Multicultural Council (Multicultural Tauranga). 

​Multicultural Tauranga is one of 20 Regional Multicultural Councils throughout New Zealand. There are also national councils for women, youth, seniors and business, which all come under the umbrella of the New Zealand Federation of Multicultural Councils ( Multicultural New Zealand, MNZ). Its primary role is to promote support and share information among the Regional Councils.

TRMC is also registered with the New Zealand Charities Services, under the Charities Act 2005. Our registration number is CC36898. Our constitution has recently been updated to accommodate better stability of the nomination and governance of TRMC. Further updates will be needed to ensure it meets newly established guidelines and legislation, better mirrors the constitution of MNZ and meets the needs of a modern and post global pandemic environment.

Mission statement: Our mission is to be the “HUB” and the “VOICE” for our migrant communities.
Vision Statement: A multicultural community where people of all cultures live safely and in Harmony.
Our Values: Celebration, Collaboration, Inclusiveness, Empowerment, Respect, Te Tiriti O Waitangi
