HOW WE DO IT - The “REAL” Approach

Research & Reflect:

The Foundation will host an inhouse think tank. The think tank will be established to conduct research to generate evidence through primary data and knowledge on critical governance issues in its immediate constituency (being Liberia) at a first instance, West Africa and Africa. This will be aimed at addressing the massive knowledge gap in policy making in Liberia (and the continent as a whole) as well as ensuring that all of the Foundation’s priorities, programmes, projects and engagements are informed by evidence regarding the instance of pertinence. We will analyze governance and public policy issues with aspirations of policy relevance and academic excellence. To this end, the Foundation will partner with leading organizations and institutions (universities, research 3 institutions, other think tanks, development agencies, etc.) The Foundation’s research will be informed by questions on the analytical and normative issues that practitioners in governance and public policy face. Building bridges between academia, political leaders, business, and civil society requires effective communication.

Engage & Empower:

We use the insights of our research and policy advice to foster public debate on key issues in governance and public policy, as well as feed the questions raised in policy debates and dialogues back into our research and advisory work. In addition, the foundation will bring people together to exchange ideas and develop common initiatives. Through debate and dialogue, we aim to support and assemble social and political entrepreneurs, build strategic communities and nurture thought leadership, applied research at both national and regional levels. Effective and accountable governance requires individuals who are creative, thoughtful and unafraid to work across issues and boundaries. Working separately or in collaboration with governmental, non-governmental, bilateral, multilateral, political, non-political and other entities, the Foundation will vigorously pursue avenues for the establishment of strategic partnerships and the strengthening of existing ones to develop practical operating frameworks for successfully carrying out the multiple programmes, projects and other activities aimed at promoting the principles of Good Governance, Local/National/Regional/Continental Peace, and Security across all landscapes;
