WHAT WE DO

As a research and advisory firm, 4th Wheel provides valid and sophisticated insights to social welfare programmes to enable data-driven decisions. Strategic advisory services contribute to building monitoring and quality control systems to manage social projects, institutionalising performance reporting, and achieving tangible results. Practical and culturally relevant social impact assessment strategies are designed for organisations that involve all stakeholders, not just evaluation experts. Impact evaluation is incorporated into programme design by developing contextual Theory of Change (ToC) frameworks and building impact-focused solutions.

Corresponding to the ToCs, indicator grids are designed which facilitate Results-based Management. Communication for Development (Com4Dev) assignments attach significant importance to the meaningful participation of stakeholders in developing unique social stories. 4th Wheel helps to transform reports into visually engaging content to share stories, garner support, and improve the likelihood of comprehension and engagement, in turn building positive social perceptions of organisations. Capacity-building programmes aid teams in conceptualizing programme design, implementing social projects, developing outreach and communication plans, forming strong partnerships, and assessing organisational impact.
