Joe Wilson


I am passionate about people feeling seen, valued and understood for who they are and how they add value to our communities. With a diverse background that includes teaching, coaching, youth development, music, performance, community led development, human rights, local government, social innovation and story-telling, I do my best to support the the grassroots change makers in our communities through 'action advocacy'. By utilising strengths based video storytelling and written articles, I help raise awareness and inspire equitable change. The stories/research, are all developed through deep relationships and a strong understanding of community led development and grass roots led systems change.
