Belonging Co has been founded by Mantej Singh in 2025. Mantej brings to this work extensive experience across community engagement, social outcomes, placemaking, diversity and inclusion. He has driven complex inclusion outcomes and won awards and recognition for his work.
Belonging Co was founded from a simple but deeply held belief: belonging is not a ‘nice to have’ — it is foundational to thriving communities, effective institutions and meaningful social impact.
For Mantej, this belief did not emerge overnight. It has been shaped over many years through lived experience, professional practice and close work with communities, public institutions and leaders grappling with complexity, diversity and change.
Long before Belonging Co existed, Mantej was asking the same question that still drives the work today:
Who gets to belong — and who is being left out by the way our systems, spaces and organisations are designed? How do we increase community participation?
Services
Inclusive leaders - Leadership and inclusion insights
Many leaders want inclusion outcomes but can lack time, clarity or capability, to understand what is blocking progress. What leaders need to do is to identify blind spots, systemic barriers and performative practices that stall change.
Work with Belonging Co to build leadership capability and insights to drive genuine inclusion and belonging.
Inclusive strategy, frameworks and action plans
Many organisations have good inclusion intentions but no clear pathway to impact. What leaders need are plans, strategies and frameworks that provide clear guidance on creating impact and measuring it.
Work with Belonging Co to turn inclusion intention into focused strategy — and strategy into measurable outcomes.
Inclusive communities – Empowered staff and community networks
Staff and community networks hold lived experience and on the ground insights. Yet are often under-supported and used as focus groups. What leaders need is to nurture networks as thriving communities with good governance. So they are setup for success and feel empowered and engaged to contribute.
Work with Belonging Co to build meaningful, transformative and engaged communities.
Inclusion training - driving social and cultural belonging for impact
Training without courageous facilitation, reflection opportunities, lived experience focus, and spotlight on systems change rarely leads to change. What leaders need to do is build capability while examining the systems that reproduce bias, racism, and exclusion.
Work with Belonging Co to create accountability and confidence to actively support social and cultural inclusion and belonging.
Inclusion conversations - Facilitation, speaker and host
Many organisations avoid the conversations that matter the most — about culture, power, barriers and systems. What leaders need to do is create safe, courageous spaces for honest dialogue. Conversations that explain the approach to inclusion and acknowledge the role of leaders in it.
Work with me to host courageous inclusion conversations that build trust, shift perspectives, and lead to meaningful action.
Customised solutions
When inclusion challenges don’t fit neatly into a single service, leaders need customised solutions. This offering draws across leadership, strategy, systems, community, training, and facilitation to address complex realities.
Work with me to design a tailored approach that responds to your context and delivers meaningful inclusion and belonging outcomes.
