Introducing Megan Shove
As a self-proclaimed “research geek” Megan has quite the experience sinking her teeth into grunty research and methodologies aligned to social value.
Pair this up with the history of social conscious action where she would join her sister in protests.
And then add on her work in charities, international development, and local government with a healthy splash of travel and it’s a winning combination… to land herself in environments focused on social value and impact.
Megan contributes to understanding impact on a community development level through working for Te Whānau O Waipareira and Social Value Aotearoa.
