Our Work
Through research and advocacy, we offer consulting services to people seeking in-depth data about particular subjects such as social policy, socioeconomic development, the environment, … and many more.
We also provide internally focused financial advice to profit and non-profit organisations; and partner with stakeholders to determine causes for performance gaps in their organisations and identify developmental solutions in an attempt to improve organisational effectiveness.
Furthermore, we assist organisations with strategic planning to guide them from their current state to their desired state/vision. Here is a sample of our most recent work
