Consultancy

We provide consultancy services to governments and NGOs in the health sector, as well as universities and associations. We have particular knowledge and interest in public health, mental health and the health of disadvantaged groups.

Our consultancy services include:

  • strategic communications
  • change management
  • education programs for consumers and professionals 
  • disseminating research
  • implementation strategies
  • getting research into policy
  • getting policy into practice.

We develop a project team to meet a client's specific needs. Many years of project management experience ensures that our work is delivered on time and on budget, whether it's a small scale or long-term project. And our personal approach makes working with us easy and enjoyable.

Research and evaluation are integral to RaggAhmed's work. Some projects may involve developing an evidence base to work from or require a formal literature review. Or we may recommend carrying out focus group research, in-depth interviews or more basic surveys to inform the development of a communications strategy.

Snapshot series reports

RaggAhmed publishes our own series of reports on key issues in the public health arena.
