We help institutions, universities, donors, and programme leaders understand the DRC with confidence. Our teams combine local access, rigorous methods, national deployment capacity, and disciplined field operations to turn complex realities into evidence leaders can act on.
We work where credibility matters: evaluations that must withstand scrutiny, research that informs policy, field operations that need discipline, and data systems that senior teams can trust.
We are rooted in Bukavu and authorized to work across the DRC. Our regional offices, focal points, and investigator networks allow us to mobilize quickly while keeping fieldwork accountable, contextual, and locally informed.
Eastern DRC: national and eastern office in Bukavu, with focal points and investigator networks in Goma, Kindu, Beni, and Bunia.
Central and southern DRC: representation in Lubumbashi, with focal points in Kalemie, Kolwezi, Kipushi, and coverage of the Kasai provinces.
Western DRC: representation in Kinshasa, covering Kinshasa, Equateur, Kongo Central, Sud-Ubangi, Mai-Ndombe, Kwilu, Kwango, Bandundu, Mongala, and Nord-Ubangi.
Tshopo and former Orientale areas: focal points supporting field deployment and data-collection operations.
Our record spans public health, education, food security, governance, humanitarian monitoring, mining, gender, protection, conflict, and agriculture. These selected assignments show how we support organizations that need reliable evidence in demanding environments.

Senior leaders need more than data. They need confidence that the evidence was collected ethically, checked carefully, interpreted in context, and delivered in a form that supports decisions.
We clarify the real decision behind the research question, shape the methodology, prepare tools, and secure the authorizations required for responsible fieldwork.
We recruit consultants, enumerators, supervisors, transcribers, and specialists, then train them on ethics, tools, local context, and quality expectations.
We coordinate interviews, surveys, focus groups, digital questionnaires, observations, logistics, and daily supervision so field operations stay controlled.
We clean and validate data, check transcripts and audio, manage secure transfer, support analysis, and produce reporting that leaders can work with.
If your institution needs evidence from the DRC that is credible, contextual, and operationally realistic, we are ready to help you design the assignment and mobilize the right team.
