What We Do

We conduct studies and facilitate the development of innovative policies; promote systems renewal; evaluate progress, and design strategic initiatives relating to:

• All levels of education and development from early learning (ECD) and primary to secondary (junior and senior), and tertiary levels
• Education variants from formal and non-formal, through technical vocational education and training, to distance learning and media-based education
• Multiple providers and facilitators from central and local governments to communities, private and non-governmental bodies (including faith-based)
• The Diverse States from normal, progressive, and successful through stagnating and failing (challenged by fragility) to dysfunctional and collapsed (emergencies);

Public health

• Identify mechanisms and tools for efficient, effective, and economic (for the poor) health service delivery along the continuum of care.
• Assess, design and strengthen comprehensive, integrated, harmonized and aligned health systems and programs.
• Help structure and enhance synergies between health and related sectors, such as education, planning and budgeting, local government, agriculture, water and sanitation, trade, industrial development, environment and climate change for growth, development, and poverty reduction.
• Help put people and communities at the center of the health system, with a focus on mothers, children, and vulnerable groups.
• Provide critical tools for a results-based approach, including data collection, surveillance, monitoring and evaluation and operational research.
• Help design a health system that delivers for all.

Advocacy and communications

We develop communication strategies and advocacy campaigns to raise widespread public awareness and help secure public support.

• We typically craft a master narrative based on evidence and designed to facilitate better decision making within and across sectors;
• We also create message frameworks, using critical analyses, audience research and cooperative problem solving;
• We specialize in “translating” and communicating technical findings and reports as a basis for constructive engagement with non-technical interest groups;
• We also often plan, execute and measure multi-media communications that reach and transform audiences into partners.
