Introducing the Inicio Evidence & Impact Hub (IEIH); A Bold Step to Redefine Development Practices
We’re proud to announce the launch of the Inicio Evidence & Impact Hub (IEIH), a new initiative by Inicio Insights and Consulting dedicated to transforming how development challenges are addressed.
Since our founding in 2024, Inicio has championed locally grounded, evidence-based solutions to support organizations. Now, through IEIH, we’re taking this mission further by blending rigorous methods, participatory approaches, and cutting-edge technology to deliver real-time, contextualized insights that answer three critical questions: What works? For Whom? Why does it work? And how we can amplify it? Placing community voice, cultural values, and equity at the center of every solution.
IEIH is powered by four interconnected labs: the Gender Transformative and Inclusion Lab, which focuses on systemic equity through an intersectional lens; the System Assessment Lab, which maps complexity for better decision-making; the Behavioral Communication Lab, which designs culturally resonant behavior change strategies; and the Participatory Approaches Lab, which elevates local knowledge to drive sustainable solutions. Working across sectors like public health, youth employment, agriculture, and climate adaptation, IEIH offers services including research, evaluation, third-party monitoring, M&E support and capacity building, technical assistance, and communication strategy, reimagining development through practical, community-driven impact.
