Evidence Synthesis & Insights
Impact evidence holds the power to guide more innovative strategies and investments, but only if it can be pieced together and understood in context.
We draw on existing sources and, where necessary, collaborate with clients to strengthen their measurement systems, generating the evidence that matters most. We apply a realist approach to evidence synthesis: analysing what works, for whom, in what contexts, and through what design and delivery features. This nuance makes evidence filterable, allowing organizations to focus on the questions that matter most for strategy and investment.
We also rethink how evidence is delivered, providing multiple methods of engagement through interactive databases, maps, and conversational tools. And because we’ve built an extensive evidence base across digital finance, small business, clean energy, and women’s economic empowerment, many organizations return to us directly for tailored advisory to inform program design, strategic shifts, and investment decisions.
