Supporting communities and health services to connect, collaborate and create meaningful change.
Healthy communities are built through genuine partnership. We help organisations engage with communities, understand lived experience and design public health initiatives that are responsive, equitable and grounded in local knowledge. Our work brings together community voices, evidence and practical strategies to strengthen health outcomes and improve access to services.
Whether you’re planning a new health initiative, evaluating an existing program, or navigating complex community needs, we support you to create engagement processes that are respectful, inclusive and effective.

Our Community and Public Health Engagement approach
A respectful, inclusive process for building trust, understanding local needs and supporting meaningful participation.

Understand
We begin by learning about the community, the public health context and the people most affected by the issue. This includes considering local strengths, barriers, lived experience and the broader social and service environment.

Connect
We identify and engage the right stakeholders, community members and partner organisations. Our approach is designed to create accessible opportunities for participation and ensure a broad range of perspectives can be heard.

Co-design
We work alongside communities and stakeholders to shape practical responses, messages and initiatives. This helps ensure activities are relevant, culturally appropriate and grounded in the realities of the people they are intended to support.

Strengthen
We bring together insights, feedback and evidence to refine the approach and support stronger outcomes. This may include improving participation, strengthening partnerships, informing service design or guiding future public health action.
Build stronger engagement with the communities you serve
Whether you are planning a public health initiative, community consultation, co-design process or stakeholder engagement program, Jinx Consulting can help you develop an approach that is practical, inclusive and responsive to local needs.
