What we do

Services that turn evidence into action.

Three categories of service — each delivered through our Associate Consultants pool, each grounded in participatory, consultative methods.

Assessments, Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning

We review and evaluate national, regional and global multi-country, multi-year initiatives, policies, strategies and portfolios — using co-creative, participatory and consultative approaches to design and implement innovative M&E frameworks.

  • Baseline, midline and endline evaluations
  • Impact and process evaluations
  • M&E framework and systems design
  • Strategy and portfolio reviews

Technical Assistance

Delivered through our global pool of Associate Consultants — skills development, training and facilitation, quality improvement initiatives, evidence-based policy development, technical backstopping and documentation.

  • Capacity assessments and skills development
  • Quality improvement planning and support
  • Evidence-based policy and guideline development
  • Technical backstopping and documentation

Applied & Action Research

Working with local actors, international NGOs and UN agencies, we co-design applied and action research to innovate local solutions that drive policy and decision-making — and create impact for marginalized voices in vulnerable communities.

  • Research protocol and tool design
  • Implementation-fidelity guidance
  • Community-driven solution design
  • Translating research into policy and scale-up

How we work

Co-creation is the method, not the buzzword.

Every framework, protocol and evaluation we produce is designed with the people who will use it — ministries, implementing partners, communities. Participatory and consultative approaches aren't a feature we add; they're how we ensure the work is actually used.
