IMPROVING LIVES THROUGH EVIDENCE AND INSIGHTS

We are measurement experts with a passion for making the world a better place. Every day we meet the rising demand for actionable data with a flair for innovation and improvisation.

The insights and solutions we provide help build a better world for our communities and our partners. We are advisors and knowledge partners to donors, governments and implementers as well as public and private sector organizations across the world.

Over the past decade, we have emerged as a pioneer in applying cutting-edge methodologies and advanced data tools to enable less complicated decision-making. We have researchers and specialists across a wide range of practice areas, including education, environment, livelihoods, public health and WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) with a focus that cuts across gender equality, inclusion and resilience. We have successfully completed projects across the world and have offices in South Asia, South -East Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa.

THROUGH DATA WE BUILD COMPELLING NARRATIVES TO CATALYZE ACTION

We leverage our 16+ years of experience and expertise to create high-impact knowledge and create accountability in the public domain through data science and evidence-based solutions.
Through insights, factsheets, case studies and data dashboards, we help communicate what works and what does not in policy design and implementation.

WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT DATA-DRIVEN CHANGE

Frequently asked questions

We measure impact by comparing areas/beneficiaries that have received the treatment/intervention with non-intervened areas/beneficiaries and explaining the cause and effect relationships using robust evaluation designs and methodologies.

The objective and key research questions of the study are essential in determining the appropriate study design. Review and synthesis of the literature associated with the key research questions also help in finalizing the study designs.

Sample size estimation is governed by the study objectives, key research questions, and the study design. Depending upon the nature of the study, one can choose between qualitative or quantitative sampling.

Several factors determine the quality of data. It starts with recruiting the right investigators for the survey, training them well, conducting regular assessments as well as refresher training sessions if required. For quantitative assessments, it is advisable to use Computer Assisted Program Interface (CAPI) with in-built range checks and consistency checks.
