We leveraged in-country experiences to advise and inform the World Bank Africa’s development trajectory especially in regards to the use of creative arts as a tool for sustainable development. We did this by collecting and analyzing various art pieces across the continent (artistic talent, poetry, etc) and evaluated its role in achieving broad-based socioeconomic development. Additionally, we engaged and informed the Bank’s development toolkits providing in-depth lived experiences and research expertise to make those interventions more agile, youth-sensitive and efficient.

We conducted in-depth research and analysis on regulatory methodologies to support Constellation’s advocacy efforts in relation to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Additionally, we developed comprehensive data matrices and assessed regulatory disparities pursuant to interstate gas pipelines to inform strategic risk assessment.

We contributed to the comprehensive understanding of the nexus of poverty, conflict and governance in some of Africa’s most fragile states using the case load of South Sudan. We gathered extensive literature evidence on the socioeconomic indicators in South Sudan and analysed those indicators using the multi-dimensional poverty index. Our findings were published in a reputable journal demonstrating the impact of this intervention in Africa’s governance domains. 

In collaboration with Learn More, we worked on the comprehensive review of the Digital Citizenship Education (DCE) Committee of Ministers Recommendation CM/Rec (2019)10, adopted on November 21, 2020, by the Council of Europe. This project aimed to assess and provide a baseline for the integration of digital citizenship education across Member States by the end of 2024.

We supported the company's international development portfolio, which includes clients such as the United States Agency for International Development, on projects in relation to emerging economies, focusing on cybersecurity initiatives. Our work included analyzing the effectiveness of cybersecurity training programs, providing strategic insights through policy memos on cybersecurity and geopolitics, and developing curricula on cybersecurity fundamentals. Additionally, we advised on policy standards for Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs), emphasizing a comprehensive approach that integrates alignment with policy and legal frameworks. 

We conducted detailed desk research on child labor in Uganda, based on academic articles and NGO reports. Our findings, compiled into a document of 51 articles published between 2000 and 2021, categorized information on prevalence, history, socio-cultural causes, and key themes like education, child protection, responsible business, and gender. We also explored sectors like agriculture, artisanal mining, commercial sex exploitation, and domestic servitude, and their contributions to child labor.
