Place-based partnerships and teams
Changing outcomes in places requires collaboration across all sectors.
Case studies
We support organisations to form new partnerships or strengthen existing ones, develop new collaborative visions for people and places, and establish new collaborative ways of working across sectors. We also develop and strengthen collaboration in senior teams, building stronger relationships, empathy and trust.
