What We Look ForBeing selected to receive consulting services is a competitive process. Typically less than 30% of organizations that apply for consulting services receive it.
We prioritize organizations that focus on educational, economic, environmental, and health outcomes because
we believe these areas are key to poverty alleviation and sustainability.
Area of Social Impact
We want to work with organizations that have the potential to not only maintain relevancy but to have
a significant social impact in the future.
Potential for Future Impact
We embrace organizations that are open to implementing recommendations and improving the
way they operate.
Likelihood of Implementation
We try to work with organizations where we can add real value. As such, we identify the expertise
and abilities of our consultants, and try to best match those to the needs of our potential clients.
