Three ways we put knowledge to work.
We help people and organisations solve the technical, social, and legal challenges of opening up data, through training and capacity building, specialised technical services, and research, analysis, and writing.
Training & Capacity Building
We work with governments, journalists, students, and citizens to build the skills they need to use data effectively, through both in-person and online programmes.
Data-literacy workshops
Practical, hands-on sessions that take participants from raw spreadsheets to confident analysis.
Train-the-trainer programmes
We grow a network of local trainers so skills spread far beyond a single room.
Fellowships & cohorts
Longer programmes that build a new generation of data-fluent practitioners.
Specialised Technical Services
We are specialised in data-driven services and technical expertise for collecting, storing, managing, analysing, and visualising data of all kinds.
Open data portals
Discoverable, reusable, standards-based platforms for public-interest datasets.
Custom dashboards & tools
Civic tools and dashboards designed around real institutional workflows.
Platform maintenance
We build for the long term and keep systems running well past launch day.
Research, Analysis & Writing
We are the open-data pioneers of Nepal, always ready to explore new areas in depth, developing principles, methodologies, pipelines, and standards as part of our analysis.
Policy briefs
Clear, evidence-driven writing that turns raw data into decisions.
Data analysis
Rigorous analysis grounded in Nepal’s realities and open methodologies.
Publications & reports
Openly licensed research, free to read, reuse, and build on.
From consultation to lasting handover.
Consult
We start by understanding the technical, social, and legal challenges of opening up your data.
Build
We design and develop open platforms, tools, and pipelines around real workflows.
Train
We equip your people so they can own, maintain, and grow the work themselves.
Sustain
We hand over documentation and standards so the work outlasts the project cycle.
