Within a mixed-methods project, I partner with the Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI, Lead: Jane Lewis) to conduct the economic evaluation of Thrive at 5, which builds capacity in communities by supporting parents and carers, and enables collaboration across the public, private and voluntary sectors to achieve sustainable change in early year outcomes.

I have been partnering with the Ministry of Education of Ecuador since 2022 to empower the teachers delivering the home visiting programme SAFPI, by providing:

1) Continuous Professional Development (CPD)

2) SAFPI TICs, a co-designed EdTech App which provides a fully digitised Monitoring and Information System (MIS).
