Turning Data Into Decisions Across East Africa
EcoPaxia Consulting Limited is a research, monitoring and evaluation firm that helps development organisations turn data into decisions. The firm was established in 2017 and brings together a multidisciplinary team whose combined professional experience exceeds thirty years across Somalia, South Sudan and the wider East Africa region.
Our core business is the design and delivery of baselines, evaluations, research studies, market and value chain assessments, and monitoring and learning systems. We help clients collect, analyse, visualise and ultimately use evidence in ways that improve programmes and strengthen accountability.
We work with United Nations agencies, bilateral and European Union funded programmes, international and national non-governmental organisations, foundations, and government, providing evidence services that are technically rigorous, participatory and right-sized to each client's purpose.
Our Core Services
Five connected practice areas, from evaluation and research through to peacebuilding, independent verification and skills transfer.
Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning
Baseline, midline, endline and final evaluations, plus the monitoring, evaluation and learning systems, results frameworks and theories of change that keep programmes accountable.
Research and Surveys
Applied social, economic and population research using quantitative and qualitative methods, from large household and facility surveys to needs analyses and feasibility studies.
Peacebuilding and Climate Change
Community-centred peacebuilding and social cohesion work, alongside climate risk and vulnerability assessments that help communities adapt to a changing environment.
Third Party Monitoring
Independent verification for programmes in complex and hard to access environments, giving donors and implementers credible assurance on what is actually being delivered.
Training and Capacity Building
Practical skills transfer and systems strengthening that leaves client and government staff able to run and sustain the work after handover.
How We Deliver an Assignment
A disciplined, participatory cycle from design to evidence use. Every assignment begins with design and ends with the use of findings.
- 1
Inception and Design
We clarify the theory of change, sharpen the evaluation questions, and agree a work plan and instruments with the client.
- 2
Tools and Mobilisation
We build KoboToolbox forms, recruit and train enumerators, and pilot the instruments before going to scale.
- 3
Field Data Collection
Surveys, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, observation and geo-data. Each method answers a distinct question rather than duplicating the others.
- 4
Analysis and Validation
Reproducible, triangulated analysis in SPSS, Stata and Atlas.ti, with findings tested against stakeholders in validation sessions.
- 5
Reporting and Use
Concise, decision-oriented reporting supported by briefs, dashboards and presentations that help clients act on the evidence.
Safeguards Across Every Stage
Quality assurance, ethics, gender and inclusion, and data protection run across the full cycle: disaggregated data, women-only spaces where needed, secure storage and audit-ready documentation.
Geographic Reach and Footprint
Rooted in Somalia, working across South Sudan and the wider East Africa region.
