Vaere.

People. Place. Purpose.

At the heart of planning.

Vaere Social is a values-led practice founded by Liesl Codrington, specialising in strategic planning, social impact assessment, social infrastructure, and strategies that embed equity, resilience, and wellbeing into planning, policy, and development. We work at the intersection of social and environmental sustainability - integrating lived experience with systems thinking to shape climate-ready, future-focussed outcomes for communities and cities.

While Liesl is currently engaged with the City Renewal Authority in Canberra, working on sustainability in our nation’s capital, Vaere Social remains grounded in its mission and is always open to meaningful collaborations - especially in areas of social planning, impact assessment, climate adaptation, and infrastructure strategy - that contribute to the wellbeing and resilience of our cities and communities.
