Our Vision, Mission & Values

We put people at the centre of our work, and accompany our clients, partners and those they serve as a trusted, critical friend.

Therefore, we have the courage to challenge power dynamics. We do this by listening to and sharing the perspectives of people at the margins, as well as to the client, whenever possible.

We emphasise collaboration, and believe that sustainable solutions require changes in wider systems and structures.  No single stakeholder can do this alone.

Therefore, we use participatory methods in which people develop sound solutions together, and feed back into the sector by making learning and resources openly available.

We provide support that is useful, appropriate to the context and easily understood.

Therefore, we combine high-quality research analysis and evidence with insights from practitioner experience, and strive to provide clients with practical suggestions which are grounded in their reality. 

We pride ourselves on our integrity. We aim to live out our values, and we are committed to our vision, our mission, to the people we work with, and to our staff and network.

Therefore, we evaluate all potential work opportunities in light of our commitment to our mission and values, and deliver quality work in an empowering and cost-effective way.

We aspire to support inclusion and diversity both within INTRAC and the organisations and people we work with.

Therefore, we provide platforms for diverse voices to be heard and to actively influence INTRAC, as well as the consultancies and training we deliver.
