With meetings from the start of the process and continuous updates through a project’s different stages, we always aim to coordinate closely to ensure that the work is informed by a client’s communities, contexts, and needs. It is because of this that many of our clients come back again and again to work with us. Below is only a partial list of some of our clients.
