Engagement in community-based activities grew rapidly post-COVID, and Neighbourhood wanted to launch a nationwide campaign celebrating conversation and people. Speak Easy was born.

With human connection at the forefront, Speak Easy was all about holding space for simple, accessible interactions where people could engage effortlessly. As part of their broader organisational goals to increase cultural awareness and honour inclusivity, we were engaged to develop a series of translations for their Conversation Cheat Sheets. From "What's your name?" to "How are you feeling?", these sheets included essential conversation starters, providing an open, safe space for people to interact with depth and simplicity.

Speak Easy was held across Tāmaki Makaurau, Te Whanganui-ā-Tara, Ōtautahi and Ōtepoti - creating a real, tangible change for people nationwide.
