Support for insights that strengthen informed action
What it involves
We identify and analyse trends, challenges and opportunities at the intersection of AI, data and rights-focused activism. Our research combines direct experience working with civil society with in-depth critical analysis, producing evidence that strengthens informed action at every level.
Each piece of research is co-designed with partners around their specific questions, building their agency to use evidence in their own work. We use a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods, grounded in participatory, community-centered practice that brings together analytical depth and lived experience.
