At Newstone Global we specialise in three areas of development consultancy: research, training and monitoring & evaluation. Regardless of the current buzzwords and fashionable acronyms, the fundamental purpose of formal reflection on programme design and implementation is to ensure that lives are truly being changed in meaningful and sustainable ways. It’s not just about metrics, it’s about people too.
While we recognise that robust project evaluation frameworks and measurable indicators are important they are merely tools to enable learning and accountability, which facilitate improvements to development interventions. Consequently we always offer a workshop translating findings into practice, as one complementary component of our services.
Our consultants are dedicated to strengthening rights-based programming through creative and participatory research approaches, recognising that programme participants must be at the heart of sustainable solutions. All our consultants are supported by a core team of experts in order to ensure that all outputs delivered to all our clients are of the highest quality. We also provide several unique services with each contract:
- Complementary workshop turning findings into practice
- Creative data visualisation and infographics
- In-house digital data collection tools
