DAG’s “people-centred approach” is what drives me on a daily basis. This links to the alignment of DAG’s collaborative and participatory approaches with my personal values and that of my colleagues.

Kathy is the Executive Director at DAG. She previously held the Operations Director position and her major role in DAG over the past 18 years has been ensuring systems support changes in organisational strategies to adequately respond to the ever-changing external conditions in the urban development sector. She has worked in the Non-profit sector throughout her working career and is passionate about making a difference in society both personally and professionally. Kathy’s dedication to social justice and meaningful transformation stems from a long history of community activism.
