Regional Economic Solutions (RES) services are enhanced by the company we keep.

Ausenco

Our primary long-term partner is Ausenco, a global engineering and consulting company that works in the minerals and metals and industrial sectors. The Ausenco-RES partnership has resulted in the creation of many jobs in Australia. One example was at Carrapateena in South Australia where we supported First Nations people transitioning into work and various supply chains at the OZ Minerals mine.

Other partnerships include Powerlink, who have expressed interest in connecting students to employment, and our legal partner McCullough Robertson.

Building on the Strengths of Our Stories (BOTS) cultural agility training is a powerful truth telling program facilitated by RES and the Queensland Government's Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development.

The program is designed to provide greater insight into ‘who we are’ as Australia’s First Nation People. The approach draws upon the ancient practice of storytelling where participants are engaged on a journey of truth telling.

Through unpacking the intentions of legislative frameworks enacted on First Nation People, a depth of understanding is built around cause and effect and how this shapes current day circumstances and practices. The approach challenges participants thinking beyond the rhetoric and towards a true shared space of understanding and collaboration.

It is a fantastic opportunity for workshop participants to build on the strengths of our collective stories and to celebrate our culture.

Global Future Makers

Develop and implement sustainable and innovated energy, carbon and water solutions, with a focus on enhancing community resilience and in particular working with First Nations people to generate respect and recognition for Indigenous knowledge, linking old, new and unique opportunities as part of ensuring a circular economy approach. This includes sustainable energy and water approaches, food security opportunities, technology neutral project solutions, and interfacing between community, industry, research, technology providers and government. Critically, Global Future Makers is focused on the circular economy, ensuring clients recognise the potential asset value of all product/waste streams, while valuing and leveraging the extensive knowledge that sits within the community/company/client’s boundary.

Supply Nation

RES is certified with Supply Nation.

I have had the pleasure of working with Leann and RES more broadly for a number of years. During that time, I have always admired Leann’s enthusiasm, vision and commitment to a defined process to make change. Critical in all her work is engaging in culturally appropriate conversations with respect and dignity.
