engaging communities

What we do

We partner with purpose-driven organisations and initiatives to unlock strategic clarity, create insight-led engagement and generate sustainable change.

The best way to achieve this is by working together. That could mean collaborating with your team, empowering you by building your capability, co-creating with communities, or bringing together a group of our trusted specialists and partners to jam on your project.

Strategy

  • A fresh look can be invaluable. We’ll start the strategy development process by gathering authentic user voice, insight and data. We’re able to audit your channels and content to provide actionable recommendations.

  • Time for a new approach, an engagement strategy or just a sounding board? Let’s work with your team and communities to co-create a living strategy to achieve your goals.

  • We can support with strategy implementation, providing either short-term or ongoing strategic leadership for project teams, business units or organisations.

Content

  • Together with our partners we focus on co-creating accessible and effective resources to support continual learning for your community.

  • Let’s dream up an epic content plan and bring it to life. This could be creating a full-length video story, a series of snackable social posts, or leveraging the rich content before and after a virtual event.

  • Content isn’t set and forget. We’ll look after your content or website, giving it the love and care it needs to provide an accessible user experience and rank well in search.

Engagement

  • Engaging communities is what we do. Together we can facilitate conversations, build relationships and create ongoing community connection through multiple channels.

  • Connect with your community through an engaging in-person or hybrid experience. We can manage events large or small and develop a solid events strategy for your organisation.

  • Nothing beats the magic of in-person events – but well-planned virtual events come close! Let’s create something fun for your audience. From webinars, to full scale interactive events. We can manage the process end-to-end.

Capability

  • Time for a resource boost or need cover for a role? We can fill a gap in your team with short or long term contracting assignments.

  • Specialty areas include social media 101, running successful virtual events and mobile content creation.

  • We’ll work alongside your own team or provide one-to-one coaching for a skill and capability boost in areas you identify.

Virtual event spotlight

Check out the highlights from the Aroha in Action Family Start Hui 2023 to see what’s possible with a well-planned virtual event. We worked together with and on behalf of Tākai to facilitate this full-day professional learning experience for over 500 Family Start whānau workers which included plenary sessions, breakout workshops and panel discussions. The goal of the hui was to build capability and confidence responding to and preventing family violence and sexual violence as part of Te Aorerekura.

Participants were supported by our team and everyone received a pack of rauemi to encourage ongoing learning and reflective practice before, during and after the hui.

Our mahi included: experience design, kaikōrero selection and liaison, event logistics and management, participant support, technical direction, content editing and publishing.

  • “This has been the ONLY hui which has captured my attention for most of the day. Beautifully facilitated. Well thought out and professionally delivered.”

  • “Online hui was awesome more focused then being in a space with hundreds of people. Loved yoga and the live music was therapeutic.”

  • “Online support was very prompt and supportive. It was great to be in a modern wānanga, utilising technology while reaching the masses across Aotearoa. It was good to receive the knowledge, without having to travel for miles and be away from our whānau.”
