Parika V. Email & Phone Number

I have a multidisciplinary background in strategy, futures and service design and my interest lies in addressing complex challenges that require multi-actor and cross-sector collaboration. I am currently an Advisor (Assistant Director/EL1) at the Policy Projects and Taskforce Officer at the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet. I am working on the Long Term Insights Briefings, a project sponsored by Australia's highest-ranking public official, to use strategic foresight to examine the complex, long term issues facing the Australian community. I have worked in the South Australian public sector to drive mission-oriented and anticipatory innovation with a whole-of-government and whole-of-state focus. Prior to this, I was a consultant providing bespoke solutions to public and private sector clients, in the fields of futures, speculative design and service design. I am also a Global Shaper and I am passionate about collaborating with fellow young people to take collective action on issues of local relevance. I want to create a sustainable and equitable future for all – one where we uphold the dignity of all forms of life and our planet.
