Founded with a vision to influence change by impacting mindsets, we are a Black woman-owned agency with progressive values, striving for inclusive solutions. While we’re based in Johannesburg, we are proud to have worked with organisations and movements from across the Global Majority.
We embrace a culture of learning that challenges us to think creatively, listen deeply and implement efficiently. Our ethos guides us to:
– Support visions of beneficial change and influence – Offer value-driven and localised, community-centred solutions – Align our efficient workflow channels with progressive efforts
Since 2019, we have worked with progressive non-profits, social enterprises, innovators and institutions who work at the intersections of the present and the future. Some of the sectors we’ve worked in include:
Gender Justice and Equality

Our Journey So Far
Birthed in 2017
Operating in a fast-shifting digital world, Stractiv8 Digital and Marketing was conceptualised to offer services to small and medium businesses. This was a grounding period where technical competency was harnessed, and the identity of the agency started to take shape.
Focused from 2019
Being future-focused and always looking to be tech-savvy and ready, the onset of the global pandemic magnified the opportunity to support development, civil society and education. We leaned into a vision to enable social impact by working with development, higher education and civil society.
Growing from 2025
Five years, multiple successful projects, and thousands of lives touched have brought us to a solid understanding of who we are, how we can add value, and what our contribution to development looks like. We are for the Global Majority and for the inclusive future.
