Welcome to Galvanizing Equity. Galvanizing Equity Group Inc is an innovative consulting group led by Lorraine Greaves and Nancy Poole, working with clients in Canada, UK, USA and Australia. We bring evidence to action in order to make change for women and men on a range of issues from health promotion, health equity, substance use and tobacco, mothering and pregnancy.

We evaluate programs, synthesize research and use technology to train and connect people from communities, policy, academia, programs and services. Through connecting in person or via technology, we co-learn and co-develop with individuals and groups across the world to build new or improved tools, frameworks or programs.

Our work is all aimed at some of the most ‘wicked’ problems in society: those that are hard to solve or respond to. Our work is aimed at reducing various inequities — hence our name — that affect health, social and economic status and well being for millions across the world. Recently we have been addressing issues such as how to evaluate innovative housing projects for women with complex issues, how to influence health promotion address the dual goals of improving health and status, and how to make policy changes that reduce inequity not increase it.

We hope you get in touch with us, or follow us on social media to talk about our work, and to see if we can work together.
