Aurelia’s place-based approach begins with the assumption that community transformation must come from within.

It is community-centered, always prioritizing traditional knowledge and local cultural perspectives. We work from the bottom up, from the inside out, taking our lead from those that know the community best – it’s members – and work collaboratively with those members to identify and support the strengths and capacities that already exist locally, to pinpoint your unique needs, and work towards your goals.

We believe in strength in community, and we are honoured to play a part in supporting community growth, in holding space for the development of skills and capacities, and in the building of the future for your members that they envision for themselves.

[ finding a way ]

Flowing from our commitment to action, we bring visions and plans to life. The course may veer, but we are flexible and adaptable, and the journey’s end remains constant in our sights.


[ making it happen ]

Kindled by belief and forged with determination and passion, we blaze new trails, we cherish new beginnings, and we nurture hope.


[ nurturing strong roots ]

Grounded by the certainty that solid and trusting relationships support all that we do, we respect diversity, we honour cultural integrity, and we celebrate differences.


[ creating space for growth ]

Inspired by infinite possibilities, we recognize the strength of shared learning and the power of co-creation on the path to transformation and change.
