Judy Lambert
Judy Lambert
The experience Judy gained in more than a decade of work as a research scientist has been applied to policy development, the preparation of analytical and policy papers and liaison with a diverse range of conservation and resource use interests.
Many years working in a liaison position in Canberra and as Environmental Consultant to a Federal Environment Minister have ensured that Judy is very familiar with the federal public service and political processes.
Judy's interests lie particularly in natural resource management and bridging the gap between producers, scientists, governments and the community.
Jane Elix
Jane Elix
After 14 very rewarding years of operation with Community Solutions, Jane has recently stepped down as co-director and shareholder.
Judy continues to run Community Solutions as a business specialising in providing services for sustainable living. Community Solutions will continue to work with both urban and rural communities to enhance social and environmental outcomes, but the emphasis of our work will be more strongly on research and policy work at the interface between social and environmental outcomes. Natural resource management will remain a primary focus.
From time to time, Community Solutions will work collaboratively with Jane Elix Consulting. In this way we will continue to bring together Judy's research and policy expertise (particularly as they relate to primary production and biodiversity conservation, but also to urban sustainability) with Jane's outstanding skills in facilitation, consensus building and multi-party dispute resolution.
Our long-serving and ever-reliable assistant, Heather Pearce, will continue to provide part-time services to Community Solutions, and in many instances Heather will be the first person you 'meet' when you contact us.
