Governance Support

Feminist governance is about who decides, how decisions are made, and whose voices are centred.

We accompany boards governing feminist and social justice organisations by building leadership and accountability structures that reflect their values—not merely systems of compliance, but cultures of shared power, care, and collective responsibility.

We work with organisations to design or refine governance models that:

Clarify roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes.

Strengthen board alignment with
 feminist values.

Clarify roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes.

Co-create charters, codes of conduct, feminist governance policies, and conflict resolution
frameworks.

Establish accountability mechanisms that are relational rather than punitive.

"Bureau Kensington was instrumental in helping us build a strong feminist governance framework. Their thoughtful guidance improved the relationship between our board and management, and also strengthened the connections among board members themselves—fostering deeper trust, alignment, and shared leadership"
