OUR VALUES
Placing Relationships at the Fore
We lead by listening.
Community collaboration means incorporating feedback into a design, strategy, development or policy in a significant way. Collaborating directly with community is essential to project success.
We’re flexible to change.
We can’t predict the future. Space for change and the unexpected is built into projects from the beginning, because being flexible allows for new opportunities.
Simpler is better.
Sometimes, policy and development processes are confusing which results in inaction. We prioritize communicating things the simplest way to ensure it is meaningful and accessible to all.
