The Governance Practice – Who are we and what do we do?

The Governance Practice, previously comprised of Graham Teskey, Lavinia Tyrrel, and Tara Davda, are delighted to welcome Mark Harradine, Reiko Take and Maddie Nash (in our UK office) to the expanded team!

Over the last few years, the ‘Governance Practice’ has developed a reputation for provision of high quality governance analysis and policy advice via technical support – notably with the support of our local and international staff in KOMPAK, PHD and the PNG Governance Partnership.

We have also undertaken stand-alone consultancies such as the Sri Lanka DFAT Governance Strategy, design of the Coalitions for Change program (CfC) in the Philippines, and the Vanuatu public sector reform (PSR). Increasingly, the Practice and company is being recognised for its governance and international development technical expertise, and as a result, we have grown!

Mark and Reiko will join the team as Technical lead and Policy Officer, respectively. Maddie is already engaged by the UK Britain office, and will work with the Practice on governance business development work, as well as providing technical program support on UK-based governance and health projects.
