We exist to ensure international efforts align with what’s needed on the ground.
Working with academics and researchers worldwide, we harness their expertise and experience to discover what should be done differently.
We carefully match changemakers with the right experts who deeply understand topics and local contexts, providing targeted advice to transform strategies.
And we are building an open library of practical impact summaries, made by researchers, accessible to all.
This ensures policies and projects align with the communities they serve and drive effective change.
Changemakers deliver more effective, aligned projects
Access quick insights from our open library or book a one-hour call with an expert to get actionable advice on adapting projects to diverse communities and contexts.
Researchers make a difference and earn
Reach policymakers and practitioners by sharing accessible summaries focused on what’s useful. Earn extra income as an advisor by joining our expert network.
Our approach connects you with diverse insights and perspectives. Because that’s essential for meaningful change.
Most platforms charge fees to either share or read research.
But we think knowledge should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we created a free, open library of practical summaries, highlighting key evidence and actionable ideas for change. Independently sustained by our additional services, it’s a fairer, better system for all.
Traditional journals mostly represent North America and Europe-based academics.
But we think diversity of perspective matters. That’s why we collaborate with researchers globally, fostering inclusive conversations that create a decolonised, more representative alternative to traditional academic resources.
Bias and western-centric approaches can lead to missteps in aid.
But we believe impact starts with local expertise. That’s why we connect you with community-rooted experts who understand the culture and politics firsthand, ensuring your plans are aligned with the community’s needs.
Relying on organisational memory or the same consultants limits innovation.
But we know diverse, fresh perspectives ignite change. That’s why we connect organisations with diverse, external viewpoints beyond the usual networks, offering new approaches to tackle challenges and innovate with fresh ideas.
