Research, Advocacy & Consultancy
Research Services
Our Research activities are anchored on well-structured Key Thematic Areas (KTA) that serve as a focal point for research as well as policy development. The KTA’s also assist in influencing collaborations and external funding. We collaborate with several think-tank organisations including the Jesuit Centre for Theological Reflections (JCTR), the Zambia Institute for Policy Analysis and Research (ZIPAR) and Zambia Institute of Chartered Accountants (ZICA) on number of research projects. As such our research approach is poised to pushing forward the boundaries of knowledge to help in providing solutions to societal needs and creating a positive impact on national policy development on accountancy, issues of public financial management, accounting and finance, marketing, entrepreneurship and SME management.
While we conduct research and survey initiatives to contribute towards broadening our knowledge base in line with the ZCAS Act, we provide full-service research assistance to clients encompassing:
- Public policy research.
- Stakeholder surveys.
- Business evaluations.
- Organisational need assessments
- Market surveys and assessments
Our research output feeds into our advocacy activities in relation to learning and advancement of training in accountancy, public finance and governance aspects.
