About Renate

I work with organizations to turn accessibility and inclusion into practical working solutions. My focus is on building frameworks that connect policy with daily operations across workplaces, customer journeys, visitor experiences, and public services.

Over the past decade, I have advised government agencies, financial institutions, healthcare providers, cultural organizations, tourism, and companies across sectors. Projects range from accessibility compliance and inclusive employment models to visitor experience design and capacity building. Clients value my ability to navigate both regulatory requirements and operational realities, ensuring that inclusion is not just compliant but functional and sustainable.

I support projects across the UAE, KSA and internationally, working directly with executive teams, policymakers, and project teams.
