The Foundation accepts research commissions from civic, philanthropic, multilateral and institutional partners. All commissioned work is published openly under our editorial-independence policy — same standard as our self-initiated research.
You send us a short brief — what you want to know, why, by when. We respond with feasibility, indicative scope and a no-obligation cost band.
We co-design a research plan with explicit research questions, methodology, timeline, deliverables, costs and the publication terms.
Work runs on the same DemTech infrastructure and methods discipline as our self-initiated research.
Findings shared with you in draft. You can comment on accuracy and clarity. You cannot suppress or alter conclusions.
Final outputs published openly with methodology and data. Embargo windows of up to 6 weeks honoured for first-look briefings.
