It is critical to identify the range of impacts a proposed development is likely to have on the surrounding communities and regions, and how these can be managed.

Our highly qualified specialists are experienced in a range of social impact assessment and evaluation methods and provide well-informed findings and recommendations.

NGH specialise in developing simple, compelling stories to ensure your project outcomes and delivery steps are well understood.

We focus on identifying exactly what you need your audience to understand and shape our messaging and tool selection around that.

We work closely with you and your stakeholders to create your story and match it to the most effective approach and suitable tools.

Our team has an impressive track record supporting major road, rail, water infrastructure, and renewable energy developments including offshore wind, solar and hydroelectric technologies.
