Our vision is a world where the voices of key stakeholders, people and communities, are at the heart of the policies and practice that promote sustainable development, wellbeing and social justice.
We are a small hub of like-minded individuals at the centre of a larger network of trained associates, with a focus on continuously testing and developing better approaches to collecting and analysing qualitative data. This includes setting the standard with high quality work of our own, training others to use the approach, and continuing to write and present academic research in related areas. We are a non-profit organisation; all revenue is reinvested in dissemination and development activities which make the QuIP more accessible to as many organisations as possible.
We offer a range of services to help organisations map the impact of their interventions or explore perceptions within their networks, including consultancy for organisations who wish to sub-contract complete studies, or who require training or support to integrate the approach into their existing research or monitoring and evaluation system.
