The Inclusive Growth Commission (IGC) was launched by EMCCA to tackle inequalities and shape an Inclusive Growth Strategy. We worked with EMCCA and RSA to design a communications strategy focused on stakeholder engagement and community involvement. We mobilised influential ambassadors, secured national and regional media coverage, and produced content that connected policy with lived experience. Engagement events in Derby, Chesterfield, and Nottingham enabled dialogue between commissioners and communities. The campaign built trust, informed policy recommendations, and positioned the region as a leader in inclusive growth.
