Wendy co-designed the SpeakOut (with Andrea Cook of Red Road Consulting, Melbourne) to make public workshops more relaxed and accessible, especially in low-income and culturally diverse communities.
Since its design in 1990, they have continued to experiment and refine the model and have conducted over ten SpeakOuts. The model is being used by others in Australia and overseas.
Wendy has worked recently with Empower O‘ahu and the Hawai‘i Alliance for Community-Based Economic Development to develop the SpeakOut for community development applications in Hawai‘i.
