What We Do
Assai Consult offers two core services:
Social Infrastructure for Development
Build stronger communities through better infrastructure. Assai designs and builds social infrastructure throughout Asia-Pacific and in Indigenous Australian communities.
Better infrastructure:
- Owned and appreciated by the community
- Adapted to culture, place and climate
- Incorporates local construction techniques and materials
- Easy to maintain and repair
Stronger communities:
- Benefit socially and financially from the construction process
- Brought together by the project, healing rifts or recovering from disasters
- Improved community management capacity
- More equitable and transparent community governance
Evaluation for Social Change
Does your organisation have an evidence base for planning and decision-making? Is your organisation learning from experience or do you find the same mistakes are happening over and over again?
Research and evaluation builds your capacity for greater impact. Our experts work with you to examine the effectiveness of a program, strategy, policy or partnership.
- Engage staff in a learning process
- Take context into account
- Investigate if and how programs change peoples’ lives
- Focus on the use of evaluation findings
- Contribute to organisational practice change
