Research & Evaluation

Research & Evaluation

How can a focus on human relations add value to social research and evaluation?  It’s a question we’re constantly exploring.

Learning from the Learning Strand
Sharing insights from our evaluation of The Coronavirus Community Support Fund Grantholder Learning Strand.

At the Tavistock Institute, rigorous research and evaluation design starts from human relations. We consider the whole system and look at the dynamics between groups.

Our methods and approaches, typically pioneering, provide rigorous and meaningful evidence.

Never content with ‘just’ delivering evidence, we value participation and supporting clients, communities and organisations to learn from our work.
