Our work
Our Vision
The future is co-created!
Our Mission
We believe in building a better future by putting the power of the collective at the heart of decision-making.
Our work is organised into three areas: Research & Development, Strategic Advisory, and Knowledge Sharing. We transform ideas into practical solutions by taking innovations from concept to real-world testing. From there, we scale up processes and share proven methods to ensure lasting impact.
While we move between our three areas, we always focus on feedback and improvement to make sure our support, tools, and methods stay practical and effective. We are committed to bridging knowledge and experiences between different regions of the world, at a local, national or international level.
We conduct research to design new tools, methods, and technologies that drive real change.
For example, we developed the ADDIS – Decision Thinking approach to help citizens and decision-makers work together toward meaningful change.
We’ve launched and coordinated projects like the Global Assembly, the Governance Vocabularies Initiative, and the Citizen Engagement Platform. These initiatives rethink how we make decisions together at both national and international levels.
We help governments, international organizations, and communities of practice adopt more inclusive ways of creating policies.
For example, in Rwanda, we worked with young people, civil society, and government officials to design a national entrepreneurship policy together.
We’ve also supported open policy discussions in countries like Senegal, Nigeria, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, leading to important reforms in innovation and digital economies.
We scale our impact by empowering change-makers to take control of their own futures.
Through programs like the Entrepreneurship Policy Learning Series and Decision Thinking, we have provided training to hundreds of change-makers across the globe.
These programs help them use participatory methods for different topics, promoting a more collaborative and informed way of making decisions.
