Helping businesses engage with community.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and ESG principles are an integral part of brand authenticity for businesses. A core component of CSR is delivering meaningful, measurable community support. 

Advocacy Answers New Zealand works with businesses to develop long-term relationships with community partners that reflect business priorities. 

We’ll work with businesses to maximise their community investment, how to best leverage it, and how it can enhance their brand and build staff engagement.  We work with businesses to clearly define, measure and report the impact of these relationships.

Solving the ‘Social’ in CSR and ESG

We work with you to address the S in your Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) priorities. We develop comprehensive strategy with processes to advance social equity and measure and manage impact. We work with you to identify and prioritise community-led approaches to maximise your investment. This will provide you with the tools to identify, measure and report on the impact of your relationships and demonstrate how you are creating social change.

Strengthening and measuring your impact in the community

We evaluate your community investment opportunities and existing partnerships for how they could be expanded and maximised.  We prioritise your impact areas aligned with your purpose, business objectives and resource. We explore ways to report and promote your important contribution to your community.

Co-designing social solutions

We facilitate engagement sessions with your community partners to explore innovative ways to expand your relationship, define new initiatives and create meaningful change.

Building capacity for your partners

We offer you a tangible way to build capacity for your community partners by working with them to help define their purpose, strategic direction, key activities, impact measures and developing a road map for growth.

Community impact reporting

We work with you to create comprehensive community impact reporting to assist you with your non-financial reporting, that outlines the breadth of your activities and the measurable impact they have created.

Stakeholder engagement

We work with you to map your stakeholder eco-system. We identify key stakeholders, and develop strategy to identify the most effective ways to connect with them.
