Information, insight, impact
We pair the technical expertise of the best of academia with clear, award-winning writing to deliver actionable and reliable results as quickly as possible. In everything we do, we’re laser-focused on generating real impact for our clients and guided throughout by our core values of clarity, integrity, intelligence and thoroughness. We’re specialists in environmental conservation, but have applied our skills to a wide variety of organisations, brands and sectors in the UK and internationally.
Insight reports and toolkits
Report writing and research is our bread and butter. Every year, we review hundreds of documents and finely craft thousands of words to create clear, informative and usable research and recommendations for our clients.
We’ve developed innovative approaches to systematically source and analyse key information on any subject, and to summarise it in a format that’s tailored to your audience.
We pride ourselves on our versatility. We’re as happy delivering flagship impact reports for international not-for-profits as we are competitive analyses for conservation training providers.
We’re as dedicated to developing toolkits that empower communities to conserve natural resources as we are to helping tourist businesses transition to a sustainable future. We’re as content producing scoping reports for the Pacific as we are policy reviews for the Indian Ocean.
We’re as committed to exploring the potential of blockchain and big data as we are to researching deep sea mining, invasive species and community-centred conservation.
Whether they’re used to support decision making or policy development, organisational strategy or campaign management, we work hard to ensure that all of the reports we deliver help our clients to increase their impact and influence, and to spark positive change.
Academic papers
We’ll help you to turn your data and research into posters, presentations and journal articles. Our academic work is truly interdisciplinary in method and global in scope. We’ve developed novel research approaches that borrow not only from ecology, conservation science and socio-economics, but also from medicine, psychology and business management.
We’ve worked in geographies as varied as the South Pacific, Western Indian Ocean, Caribbean, Australasia and Northern Europe.
We’ve published papers on subjects as diverse as community-centred conservation, protected area management and financing, evaluation design, environmental campaigns, invasive species, ecotourism, value chains, knowledge transfer and conservation volunteering.
But if you don’t have any data, that’s no problem. We can help there too...
data collection AND ANALYSIS
We’ll grow your idea from seed through design, data collection and analysis to write-up, communication and beyond. We’ll clarify your question, develop your questionnaire, wrangle your data, and sort your statistics.
As devout interdisciplinarians we’re experienced in everything from terrestrial, freshwater and marine field techniques, through to in-person and online questionnaire surveys, focus groups and semi-structured interviews.
We’ve delivered surveys to thousands of respondents, laid hundreds of quadrats and transects, and counted more fish, lizards and birds than we care to imagine.
We’re skilled statisticians and regularly teach workshops to help scientists get the best out of Excel and R. We’re generalists, but have concentrated expertise in mixed-effects modelling, meta-analysis and automation.
