Areas of Specialization

Where we create lasting impact

Three interlinked areas of expertise anchor every CoD engagement — from organisational strengthening to research and policy.

Organisational Development & Institutional Strengthening

We are a leader in organisational capacity development — delivering innovative employee capacity-building, retention and performance strategies and comprehensive capacity assessments that produce fact-based solutions. Our assessments and tailor-made trainings, including work for the Ministry of Environment in Puntland, have been recognised by stakeholders such as the World Bank and UNDP.

Research, Monitoring & Evaluation (RME)

We give donors the evidence and accountability they need — proof that funding delivers real change for beneficiaries. Among the top consulting firms in this sector in Somalia, we apply quantitative and qualitative techniques such as sampling, longitudinal analysis and rapid appraisals, backed by digital data-collection tools like Kobo Toolbox.
