Jemimah Akrofi

Co-ordinator

I have a background in physical sciences but I have mainly worked in assisting small-medium enterprises to develop and evolve. I have also taught IT skills to ESL speakers, refugees, migrants and adults of all ages and backgrounds.

Joining the Co-create team has enlightened me to the co-production process and how instrumental it can be for significantly engendering change. Co-production involves the people directly affected by the decisions made.

This engagement in finding solutions together benefits businesses and communities in a meaningful way. The non-linear and iterative nature of this process really appeals to me as a mechanism for inclusivity within the community.

Within Co-create, my role as a Coordinator is to manage the financial and administerial aspects. I work on maintaining and developing processes to ensure Co-create’s activities run smoothly. This gives us an effective foundation from which to engage meaningfully with our clients.
