Access – Since 2008, Navanti has built local networks of researchers around the world, native to the environments in which they operate, providing access to information across ethnic, tribal, gender and class lines.

Depth – Relationships, grievances and cultural norms often determine success or failure of project interventions. We identify data that is beneath the surface, providing insight into opportunities that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Timeliness – Difficult to acquire, in-depth analysis and planning is useless unless it can be delivered in time to support program decision making and learning.

Flexibility – Effective research networks provide an opportunistic capacity that takes advantage of near horizon change. This enables a cross demographic/location/methodology approach designed to fulfill current information needs and anticipate new ones.
