Education & Child Development
Research and evaluation involving learning environments, early childhood development, teachers, caregivers, schools and education systems.
Gesem combines research methods with sector understanding so that indicators, questions, stakeholder engagement and recommendations reflect the programme environment—not only the dataset.
Many assignments cut across sectors. Our team model allows technical, thematic and field expertise to be combined around the questions that matter.
Sector experience is applied through fit-for-purpose teams and methods. Gesem does not treat sector labels as substitutes for understanding the intervention, population and context.
Research and evaluation involving learning environments, early childhood development, teachers, caregivers, schools and education systems.
Evidence on household food security, livelihoods, income, resilience, shocks, recovery and programme contribution.
Research and evaluation around access, behaviour, service quality, inclusion, environmental safeguards and community-level outcomes.
Studies that connect climate and disaster risks, natural-resource management, agriculture, resilience, vulnerability and community adaptation.
Context-sensitive work examining participation, safety, leadership, inclusion, unequal access and programme effects across different groups.
Research on forced displacement, migration, mobility, integration, livelihoods and the institutions responding to mobile populations.
Applied research on employment, skills, labour markets, organisations, enterprise and economic participation.
Evidence and consultancy support for policy, governance, justice and accountability questions as well as stronger institutional systems and implementation capacity.
Food security can depend on climate, gender, markets and conflict. Education outcomes can depend on livelihoods, disability, protection and institutional capacity. Gesem designs mixed-method assignments to examine these connections rather than forcing complex programmes into narrow categories.
We will assemble the methodological and thematic expertise around the assignment requirements.
