Much of iDC’s work is concerned with carrying out M&E assignments. Its consultants have expertise and experience of quantitative and qualitative approaches to conducting surveys and assessing the impact of humanitarian and development interventions.

Development Communication

 

From its inception, assignments related to development communication have been core activities of iDC. For numerous clients in many different countries the company’s consultants have facilitated the formulation of a wide variety of communication strategies, designed civic education programmes and public awareness materials.

Research

 

iDC Consultants have carried out a variety of research assignments over the 25 years the company has been operating.

Throughout the years iDC has been involved in the design and delivery of capacity development programmes and the production of training materials. A particular concern has been to promote participatory and experiential modes of training.
