Tania is a systemic participatory designer and developmental evaluator, working with people and organisations to navigate complexity through different ways of thinking, being and doing for social innovation.
What matters
Making systemic changes in our world that take people’s lived experiences seriously. Privileging the voices of those that have been excluded from our socio-economic systems. Understanding and embracing the complexity of who we are as humans in our social systems. Designing social value, not just for it, with our ecology and social justice in mind.
Whakawhanaungatanga, the act of building relationships. Manaakitanga, the act of respect, generosity and care.
“How might we change our systems to enable radical and active lived experience leadership?”
