Our work spans research and evaluation, strategy and design, and capacity building, in partnership with communities, funders, research bodies, commissioners and policymakers.
Just Knowledge came prepared to work with those already here, partnered with us in co-designing and agreeing the best approach and listened actively to what residents’ had to say. Others often come with conclusions drawn, just seeking a rubber stamp.
— Eduardo Araujo, Programme Manager, NLPC
What’s made the partnerships with Just Knowledge valuable is that the research actually connects to what our communities experience. On our joint projects, the people most affected are shaping what the evidence means and what should be done about it. That’s not how research usually works and it’s why we’ve kept working together.
— Lynette Charles, CEO, Mind in Haringey
Just Knowledge’s approach combines rigorous standards with genuine involvement and empowerment of communities. Doing one of those well is hard enough, and doing both well is unique. They are paving a new way of developing evidence that centres communities and drives practical outcomes.
