What We Do

What We Do

Policy Development & Implementation


At Collectively Determined, we believe that every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets. However, we also believe that because systems were made by people, people also have the power to un-make them and build better. Amidst this tension, we know that health justice is achievable–but only through radically transforming practices, systems, and narratives.


We bring years of experience in policy analysis, development, and implementation. Our emphasis on human-centered design and advocacy means that Collectively Determined is all about promoting policy that works.

Management Strategy & Organizational Development


Collectively Determined partners with leaders to bring the cutting edge of research to their organizations and initiatives–and make sure that their cutting-edge work gets promoted back out into the world. 


We’re dedicated to making sure your health equity work can go the distance–this means focusing on helping you build–and fund–lasting organizational change.

Research, Evaluation, & Storytelling


Powerful stories need to be told well to have an impact. We help design and execute mixed method research projects to suit any context and ensure funding.


Collectively Determined plans, designs, and executes high quality initiatives with our partners that focus on social determinants of health, health integration, and equity. 


We bring years of experience leading health and social care integration strategy, innovation, quality improvement, intersectoral collaborations, equity & inclusion initiatives, and participatory and liberatory design approaches.
