Annie Bolitho & Associates specialises in creating inclusive processes specific to people's needs, interests and environments, to get results that make a difference.

Our approach entails skilled facilitation and development of forums drawing out diverse perspectives and values.

We do this through:

Community & stakeholder engagement, facilitating meetings and planning sessions, and a special interest in deliberative methods and citizens juries. Annie has conducted engagements for clients which:

• invite diverse people and interests into one conversation on a focused question
• involve hard-to-reach groups
• increase capacity
• bring together 'expert' and lay perspectives
• allow for greater understanding between all parties

Socio-cultural research. With a background in community, government and higher education Annie brings a unique combination of experience on diverse projects. Annie's expertise is in people's interests in place, participation, resource management, environment and climate adaptation.

Coaching. It can be difficult to stay on course to influence change. As a coach and mentor Annie can assist by bringing focus to the platform you wish to create, the connections you wish to make, and the development of ongoing constructive and reflective action and review.
