Our Services

At Mawang Consulting, we believe in the power of collaboration and two-way learning. Our name, derived from the Wiradjuri word for "All Together," reflects our commitment to bringing people together to create meaningful, lasting impact. We work closely with stakeholders to ensure that First Nations voices are not only heard but are integral to the design and delivery of projects and initiatives.

Advisory and Strategy

At Mawang Consulting, our Social Impact Services focus on driving meaningful change through strategic and specialised guidance. We specialise in building strong, collaborative relationships between organisations and the communities they serve. By aligning stakeholder interests with organisational goals, we help clients develop impactful strategies that foster community trust, drive sustainable outcomes and enhance social responsibility. Our tailored approach ensures that your initiatives not only meet business objectives but also contribute positively to society.

Co-design and Collaboration

Mawang Consulting’s Co-Design Services empower organisations to create solutions collaboratively with their stakeholders. We facilitate interactive workshops and design sessions that bring together diverse perspectives to co-create innovative strategies and solutions.

We facilitate, teach and do all things co-design. Jessie is a sought after teacher and speaker on collaborative approaches.

Research and Evaluation

At Mawang Consulting, our Research and Evaluation Services are designed to provide insightful and actionable findings that drive informed decision-making. We utilise culturally relevant and safe research methodologies and evaluation techniques to assess program effectiveness and impact. Crucially, we integrate Indigenous methodologies, respecting and incorporating traditional knowledge and perspectives to ensure culturally responsive and holistic evaluations. Our approach ensures that research outcomes are meaningful, relevant, and supportive of both organisational goals and community values.

Facilitation

Mawang Consulting’s Workshop Facilitation Services are tailored to inspire collaboration and drive effective outcomes. We design and lead interactive workshops that engage participants, foster dialogue and build consensus on key issues. Our facilitators use techniques with a First Nations flavour to create dynamic, inclusive environments where ideas can flourish. Whether for strategic planning, team-building, or problem-solving, our workshops are customised to meet your specific needs and goals, ensuring productive and impactful sessions that drive your organisation forward.

Upcoming Workshops

Co-design between worlds: care, solidarity and reclamation

Sydney 26 February 2026 - Camperdown Commons, Gadigal (get earlybird tickets)

Adelaide 2026 - date and venue TBC (email to express your interest)

This event offers practical tools and stories for co-designing between worlds while centering care, solidarity and supporting sustainable self-determination for many communities.

In recognition of the communities we belong to, we offer a special rate for mob, trans folks and for young people (under 25). We also offer early bird rates.

We’ll yarn, connect and learn about:

reclaiming co-design as something mob have done for thousands of years
exploring how we hold each other up in this work, roles and care structures
supporting many communities to reclaim authorship from beginning to end
doing co-design and co-production in ways that are more accessible and accountable to communities

We learned the term 'sustainable self determination' from our friends at Kowa Collaboration

Co-delivered with KA McKercher from Beyond Sticky Notes

This workshop offers social impact teams the oppourtunity to come together for a full day workshop where we can zoom out and (re)align as a team to build a new direction towards social change.

These sessions involve slowing down, reflecting and finding our purpose together as we navigate the messiness of social impact work.

These sessions are grounded in First Nations ways of being and doing as we unpack what relational work looks like as we seek change across our communities and teams.

These workshops are aimed for teams doing social impact work across ACCOs, Government and NGOs, Placed-Based Initiatives and Innovative Teams.

These sessions are bespoke and designed to involve pre-planning to create something tailored to your teams needs.
