The organisation can offer the full range of research services covering qualitative and quantitative methods, research design, report writing, literature review and presentations. If an advocacy or participatory (emancipatory) approach to the research would better suit the partner so that a marginalised or vulnerable group can be given a voice, the team will involve them in all the stages of the research. Or possibly a mixed method to triangulate the research can be applied, giving it a more balanced and deeper understanding of the issue. A brief can be followed or research can be designed to suit various needs. Although the research organisation's focus is on poverty, it encompasses experts that can support work around housing, health and social care, education and economic development, with new specialisms added to the ´research skills bank´ monthly, relishing the opportunity to challenge a new issue focusing on the social or economic disadvantages and assisting in developing a sustainable resolution. The company is looking services agreements with partners working within charities, NGO´s, governments, educational bodies and businesses.
