Policy and governance research

Clear analysis of governance and public policy, with practical recommendations you can act on.

What it is

We research policy questions and turn the evidence into analysis that decision-makers can use. That might be a desk review of laws, policies and published studies, an analysis of how a programme or public body is working, or a short brief that sets out the options and recommends a way forward.

The work is led by Eliakim Anzizi, PhD, whose research covers governance and public policy, policing and security-sector reform, poverty and insecurity, and emergency management. His published work includes a study of the Kaduna State Emergency Management Agency’s performance.

Led by Eliakim Anzizi, PhD, research consultant and CEO of Erudite Digital Team Ltd. We are a remote team registered in Suleja, Niger State, with our CEO based in Kaduna, working with clients worldwide.

Who it’s for

  • NGOs and civil society groups shaping advocacy or programmes
  • Government agencies and public bodies
  • Development partners who need evidence on governance
  • Researchers and research teams adding a policy angle to their work

How we work

  1. Brief. You tell us the policy question, your deadline and who will read the result.
  2. Plan. We agree the scope, the sources and method, and exactly what you will receive.
  3. Deliver. Clear, checked analysis, with every key point linked to its evidence.

What you receive

  • Desk and documentary reviews
  • Policy analysis reports
  • Policy briefs with a few specific, feasible recommendations
  • Short evidence summaries for meetings, proposals or presentations

We agree the exact deliverables and deadline with you in writing before work starts.
