Welcome to CommsConsult

CommsConsult is an international organisation that makes communication work for development. It helps a wide range of organisations realise their potential by helping them develop and apply sound, sensible and strategic communications in all aspects of their work. With more than 12 years’ experience of working with a wide range of clients across the world including researchers and their institutions; Non-Government Organisations, bilateral agencies and the media, CommsConsult is well placed to take on the most difficult communications challenges...

CommsConsult was established in 1995. Its two offices, in the UK and Zimbabwe, co-ordinate a diverse portfolio of work using communications professionals across Africa and Asia. Together, the teams help their clients to be clear about what it is they have to communicate, to know who their audience is, what they stand for and how best to get their messages across.

The company strives always to make communications work harder to achieve development. We do evaluations, to explore the efficacy of communications activities within research, development programmes, and media campaigns, and to make them smarter, slicker, more effective in delivering programme objectives.

We facilitate workshops, to build skills and develop communication strategies participatively with our clients. We communicate conferences on behalf of clients, to identify, articulate and manage the messages coming out of their work, and to make sure the right audiences are listening.
We love the power of communications. We know it can make a big difference in the fight against poverty, if deployed properly.

We believe in local-level actions and the power of indigenous knowledge. We promote dialogue over one-way dissemination of information, because most of us are more willing to listen if we believe that we, in turn, will be heard.

CommsConsult can help you do development better by being strategic, clear and clever about the way you communicate. We’d love to help.
