Context-led feasibility studies and program design for sustainable water, agriculture and livelihoods.
A feasible climate resilience intervention must make sense technically, socially, environmentally and financially. We examine these dimensions together, with attention to resource governance, maintenance, institutional capacity and local priorities.
Our support connects feasibility studies, climate risk analysis and project design. Work on water, agriculture and livelihoods benefits from a clear theory of change and an understanding of the practical conditions needed for implementation.
What we support
Focused capabilities.
A connected perspective.
Climate-informed project design
Strategic planning and knowledge synthesis
Our team brings together climate, social research, evaluation and environmental expertise. We select methods to match the question rather than applying a standard package to every context.
How we work
Designed around
the decision.
Clarify the context
We begin by understanding the purpose of the work, existing information, stakeholder needs and the decisions that will use the findings. This shapes a proportionate and locally relevant research design.
Engage inclusively
Participatory methods create space for different community perspectives. Informed consent, gender and social inclusion, and careful handling of participant information are built into the process.
Analyse and validate
Evidence is reviewed across sources, with technical quality checks and discussion of emerging findings. We distinguish observations, interpretations and recommendations, and explain uncertainty.
Communicate for use
Outputs are structured around practical decisions: clear findings, prioritised recommendations and accessible presentations that help stakeholders use the evidence.
