I collaborate with communities, practitioners and travellers to support community resilience through education, facilitation and collaboration. Whether you’re a community leader, an educator, or simply someone curious about resilience, I’d love to explore how we can work together.
My approach, philosophy and social research ethics are important to me and are focused on collaborative and participatory values and methods which are focused on your priorities. This is important to me because it frames my approach and my professional practice – it’s who I am as a professional. Therefore, because we work collaboratively, it’s important you know about it.
So here is my ethical and philosophical statement which is the foundation of my work.
1. Applied social analysis is not straightforward – it is understanding, and working with, complexity.
2. My specific inputs reflect my professional philosophy, knowledge and practice, and is at the cutting edge of national and international experience. Predominantly I use a wide range of qualitative techniques and methods, including those oriented to action-based outcomes.
3. For me, what’s important is a professional practice that brings a wide range of national and international experiences, has a well-defined and well-regarded ethical foundation, and uses a highly developed conceptual foundation for analysis, action and support for and with the organisations, agencies and communities with which I work. We develop these approaches together and so develop a creative combination of our own experiences.
So please get in touch if you’d like to know more – we can see where our paths cross.
