We do SOcial COnnection.
We do SOcial COnnection.
We recognise that existence is shaped by a multi-dimensional overlapping of identities.
We are tired of all of the ‘isms and the ‘phobias which seek at best to divide us, and at worse, erase everyone who dares to be different from the dominant.
We stand for truth, equity, justice and moving away from colonialism, white supremacy, patriarchy and endless extraction of the earth .
We do this because we believe with a collective mindset we can create a world for everyone to thrive, not just the powerful and the privileged.
Our unique approach lies in driving innovation and equity as a COLLECTIVE of experts.
We draw on our own and our COMMUNITY’s lived experience.
We build and deliver projects for both commercial and social impact - together.
We are co-designers, thought leaders, activists, and advocates who actively contribute to the development and implementation of innovative programs, initiatives, and solutions.
You name the task or tool, we can build it.
We dream up ideas and execute them.
We do this for our communities who aren’t heard or valued by the dominant culture.
We are the systems change we are looking for.
-
Many of our collective are marginalised by the society we live in.
This is hard but its also our super power.
It means we can see problems that are invisible to others.
This combined with our expertise, means we can provide targeted advice and design and deliver action to creative more inclusive and equitable results.
-
Woah, you should really see how much experience we’ve got as a collective.
We’ve worked with everyone from some of the biggest brands to the most awesome social impact solopreneurs.
Together, we have partnered across corporate, government and community sectors and understanding the complexities and differences in all.
-
We’ve got a team of multi-disciplinary polymath legends.
However this doesn’t stop us from taking an anti-disciplinary approach.
We only stay in our lane when the situation calls for it, otherwise you can find us zooming out over convention of each discipline to improve overall results.
For us anti-disciplinary means we connect ideas, actions and people from across the multiverse to come up with unique and tailored solutions.
-
When we work with clients, we bring our best energy and expertise but we’re always thinking bigger.
Using our collective intellect, we support our clients to reach their goals whilst avoiding reinforcing status quo patterns that no longer serve our society or the earth.
We do this to create new ways of being in business and in community. Creating lasting change and opportunities for everyone to thrive.
