About the Institute

A research institute built around its analysts

We work to support inclusive and accountable economic development in Guyana by making independent analysis available to those who shape it. Each piece is commissioned for a specific question and assigned to an analyst with direct experience of it, so our findings reach policymakers, civil society, and communities in Georgetown and beyond within days rather than quarters.
