Welcoming more people into your work or study space inevitably leads to greater diversity, which can create social friction and challenges you may not have experience dealing with.
In higher education and health care settings especially, leaders and HR teams can find themselves dealing with complex dynamics, specific historic traumas, and other personnel problems without an effective equity strategy. A lot of strategies are in fact more like mission statements, and so don’t provide the clear goals, accountability and suitable evaluation an operational strategy should.
For individuals who experience racism, simply recalling and acknowledging traumatic experiences is not just insufficient, it is harmful practice. It is essential that they are given the space to work through what has happened, and see a resolution that safeguards them and others in the future – and that organisations recognise and learn from the collective experience of racism. A lack of knowledge, funds and engagement with Equity, Diversity and Inclusion means these best practice approaches are not being realised enough.
Our consultation services can help you fill those gaps, and give everyone the protection they need to function as a closer, more effective, and more grounded team.
Drawing on our own personal diverse relationships and professional expertise we can help you find a way forward that brings individuals together, sharing lived experiences, discussing trauma, and emerging stronger.
Our unique trauma-informed Equity, Diversity and Inclusion consultation process directly engages with individuals who have been impacted by racism or exclusion in your organisation. By helping them process and share their experiences – with a therapist present if required – we will use those insights to help you write and assess your strategies and move forward.
Investing in bespoke Equity, Diversity and Inclusion consultation is the best way to create an inclusive and equitable environment within your organisation. Because every organisation is unique, our tailored approach to our consultation makes sure your specific needs are being met.
Our team can offer consultation services across a range of areas:
We’re ready to discuss any challenges or goals around institutional and organisational racism that you are facing. From safely but squarely addressing the elephant in the room to teaching your colleagues to deliver training themselves, we can help you unlock closer relationships, greater wellbeing and the higher levels of performance you’ve been missing out on.

Mokita delivered insightful Anti-racist Training to our Senior Leadership and core team members at the College of Paramedics. Their approachable and engaging facilitators, Elli and Alisha, received rave reviews from participants, who found the training to be highly impactful and superior to previous diversity training. We highly recommend Mokita's training for healthcare professionals.
As a healthcare professional committed to equity and inclusion, I entrusted Mokita for two years to provide racial injustice training to hundreds of midwives and doctors in the Southeast spanning over 17 different NHS Trusts. The sessions were transformative, with engaging delivery and impactful content. I also commissioned Mokita to train academics and develop online resources, all yielding exceptional results and feedback.
