Newsletter - February 2026

We’re back for 2026, and there’s plenty happening at Wander.

Over summer we wrapped up projects, strengthened our own systems and continued conversations about work across the Goldfields, Great Southern and wider WA. We’ve also been thinking about where our clients need more support and where Wander can add more value.

One area we’re expanding is evaluation and impact measurement. We regularly see organisations doing genuinely valuable work but struggling to capture the outcomes, demonstrate their impact or communicate that value to boards, funders and stakeholders. Our approach is deliberately practical and people-centred, with formative and summative evaluation and social impact case studies designed for small to medium projects.

We’ve also been developing a new suite of principles-based community and stakeholder engagement tools, focused on some of the practical challenges that can make or break engagement, from setting expectations early to closing the feedback loop and building evidence for decision-making.

This month we’re also sharing community grant opportunities, celebrating the RRR Network and revisiting why we started Wander in the first place: to support organisations doing important work across rural, regional and remote Australia.

Grab a cuppa and see what’s on our radar for 2026.
