Areas of Expertise

We are a team of consultants who utilize our collective experience and wisdom to deliver participatory and community-driven evaluations and consultancy. Our evaluation process assesses the effectiveness and impact of projects, programs, policies, and interventions.  Going beyond traditional evaluation services we partner with your organization to maximize impact, build capacity, leverage resources for funding, develop strategic plans, and strengthen accountability.

Our approach to program evaluation is personalized and culturally-grounded, rooted in our commitment to equity and social justice. We acknowledge that evaluations often come with a built-in power dynamic that can make those facing evaluation feel as if something is being done to them by outsiders who don’t share their interests. Using a participatory model, we follow the community’s lead, honor the voices of all stakeholders, and encourage shared decision-making.

We see ourselves as partners who capture community and organizational stories. We recognize that stakeholders possess the deepest and most practical understanding of their own realities. While we excel in gathering significant data, our distinctive value lies in our capacity to personally engage with communities and convey the rich tapestry of lived experiences that give real meaning to this data. Our work is intended to be representative, relevant, and actionable.
