We were recently invited to the APHRC offices after a series of successful senior placements, including Head of Policy Engagement and Communications; Head of International Programmes; and Director of Programs. Over the course of the day, we met and had interesting conversations with the core contract and project team, reflecting on our work together. Our team experienced a great reception and hosting including a lunch spread graciously shared by the APHRC team. The discussions were both insightful and productive, and the visit marked the beginning of a lasting mutually beneficial relationship.

APHRC appreciated our responsiveness and follow up on timelines during the assignments and felt that they were kept on their toes throughout the process, and our timely communication and consistent correspondence were welcomed particularly in challenging situations.

They had positive feedback on our highly professional reports, highlighting our shortlist and reference check reports, mentioning that they were easy to read and comprehensive. The APHRC team also enjoyed the feedback sessions with our LIA team and how the assessments were translated. They admired the synergy between the findings from the shortlist report stage and the insights gathered from the assessments.

It’s great to be able to meet with our clients face-to-face and understand their key needs and challenges for the future.
