Reimagining Projects
The Problem
OUR SOLUTION
We focus on removing the systemic barriers that restrict local development actors from leveraging their own assets, strengths, and capacities. To do this, we invest in local leadership, introducing lean experimentation and collaborative models like collective impact and social labs. We facilitate the process of collecting and discussing ongoing feedback to support adaptive management and learning.

Examples:
As part of the USAID-funded Strengthening Advocacy and Civic Engagement program in Nigeria, we catalyzed 17 collective impact initiatives focused on policy change. Supported by our facilitation and tools, including network analysis and outcome harvesting, over 200 organizations working in these advocacy clusters are pioneering new approaches to hold government accountable to citizens. As the advocacy cluster members have built new relationships and aligned their strategies over the past five years, their combined efforts have contributed to significant policy change in areas ranging from accountability in the extractive industry to social inclusion in education.
