Minu has regularly participated at UN Summits and Commission meetings since 1996, covering sustainable development, urbanisation, and gender issues. She served as an advisor on the UK Government delegation to the UN Commission on Sustainable Development. She also co-coordinated the Women's Caucus to the UN Commission on Sustainable Development from 1999-2001.

Minu’s areas of work include participation of stakeholders in policy-making; communication and collaboration of stakeholder groups (multi-stakeholder processes); women/gender and sustainable development (e.g. tourism; consumption; land rights); information tools and capacity development.

Minu was closely involved in the World Summit on Sustainable Development (South Africa, August 2002), and the discussions on multi-stakeholder partnerships for sustainable development in the Summit process. She coordinated the 'Implementation Conference: Stakeholder Action For Our Common Future', held immediately prior to the UN Summit in Johannesburg. This multi-stakeholder process and event resulted in over 20 partnership initiatives in the areas of freshwater; energy; food security; and health.

Since 2002, Minu has been developing and implementing the SEED Initiative (Supporting Entrepreneurs for Environment and Development), designed to support locally driven, entrepreneurial partnerships for sustainable development. She is also engaged on advising organisations, process design and facilitation with a variety of partners.

Her latest publications include articles and reports on gender & sustainable development issues, stakeholder participation in policy making and collaboration of stakeholders. Her book “Multi-Stakeholder Processes for Governance and Sustainability - Beyond Deadlock and Conflict” was published by Earthscan, London, in January 2002.
