Many small organisations struggle to meet increasing reporting obligations caused by:

• A heightened demand for transparency and accountability from donors and funders
• Growing expectations to demonstrate the real-world impact of interventions
• Stricter regulatory and compliance requirements
• The increasing complexity of programs and partnerships
• Advances in data collection tools and technologies, along with the growing volume of information generated

Team members frequently feel unsupported due to a lack of training in developing strong writing skills, insufficient targeted feedback on their work, and a lack of guidance on applying quality control to written outputs. This gap in preparation leaves them struggling to produce clear, professional documents.

At the same time, many researchers feel ill-equipped to effectively communicate their research findings to fellow academics or to synthesise complex information for non-specialist audiences, such as policymakers, the general public, and funding bodies. This communication barrier not only hinders their professional growth but also limits the broader impact of their research.
