With You - From Start to Finish

Once our team is contracted for an assignment, we engage the client in key activities and regularly update them on progress. We are client centered and use the Human Centred Development approach in our work to co-design with the client. For example, we keep regular communication with the client and we engage them in the review and approval of all expected deliverables before they are marked as final products. For all projects we have led and/ or supported, we have walked the journey with the client until data is disseminated to targeted stakeholders.
