About Us

What we do

REC undertakes high-quality, policy-oriented research and evaluation in areas of social and economic policy. We work with a network of Research Associates and Policy Associates across the world, with a focus on Africa and Asia. REC is committed to supporting the career development of early career professionals, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds.

We support the production and use of evidence to inform policy and practice. We contribute to building the evidence architecture through:

• Evaluation
• Evidence synthesis
• Knowledge translation
• Evidence-based advice for policy and practice
• Training and mentoring
• Strategic advice and institutional support

Our values

We are committed to improving lives through the use of evidence. 

We are a transparent and inclusive organization. As we grow, we will provide opportunities to young people from disadvantaged and excluded groups.
