Pax Populus means 'peace' and 'people'.

With 15 years' social issues consulting behind us, we understand social risk. We know how to build trust, to avoid conflict and to manage and resolve conflict if it has already occurred.

We do this by drawing on the best thinking and experience in communication, conflict resolution and negotiation and applying it in practical and culturally sensitive ways. We know how to secure the Social Licence to Operate.

This delivers long-term security for clients experiencing challenging community relations problems, and achieves good sustainable development outcomes for the people whose lives are changed by major projects.

Our driving focus is to leave our clients with durable, robust relationships with the people critical to their business, and enable the conversations needed to ensure project delivery and stability.

What we do for our clients:

• stakeholder relations & communication strategy
• stakeholder audits & engagement programs
• grievance & dispute resolution systems
• resolve stakeholder disputes
• stakeholder relations & dispute resolution training
• social impact assessments
• host-community benefits agreements
• community relations project management.

We can transform the toughest stakeholder relationships to bring about social and commercial value through top-line thinking that is hand-in-glove with practical solutions. It is our belief and experience that good social outcomes bring good commercial outcomes.

To us, the drive for a more sustainable planet can only be realised at the hearth of the people who live on it. If sustainability is about securing the present for the benefit of the future generations, then it is how companies, governments and communities interact now that will determine the world's ability to deliver for their children.
