Grounded expertise, independent analysis

A specialist advisory firm for peace, security and sustainable development in the Horn of Africa.

Who we are

From insight to impact

Radar Consultancy supports organisations working with people in fragile and conflict-affected settings, promoting accountability, evidence-based decision-making and learning for development.

We identify critical insights, design targeted initiatives and deliver bespoke solutions to promote peace, security and sustainable development in fragile and conflict-affected regions.

We provide grounded, innovative and multi-disciplinary capabilities. Our field teams and partners can reach hard-to-access areas, and our experts engage at both strategic and operational levels.

Our work spans Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan and the United Kingdom, with deep local networks and long-term partnerships at the core of everything we do.

What we stand for

Three commitments behind every assignment

Accountability

Evidence that shows what happened and why, so organisations can answer to the people they serve and the donors who fund them.
Evidence-based decisions

Independent, triangulated analysis that gives decision-makers a clear view of the context before they act.
Learning for development

Findings that feed back into programmes, so each phase of work is better informed than the last.
