Global Partners and Associates (GPA) works to promote good governance and effective democratic practice in countries around the world. We do this in partnership with governments, international institutions, charitable foundations and businesses, as well as state and non-state actors.

We work with our clients to identify the constraints on the effective functioning of organisations, institutions and constitutions. Our analysis starts with the specific social, political and cultural factors which frame the problem. We look for innovative solutions with our clients, and provide continuing support and advice in managing the process of political change. We also deliver quality assessment through a range of indicators, benchmarking and other evaluative tools.

GPA's Directors provide an exceptional combined experience in the fields of transparency, democracy promotion and social responsibility. The organisation has specific expertise in; human rights; communications and freedom of expression; parliamentary strengthening; and transparency and good governance. We also enjoy extensive networks in these fields and draw on the insight and skills of a range of Associates in different parts of the world to help us deliver our projects effectively.

GPA provides a high-level, yet flexible approach to political problem-solving. By engaging directly with our clients, we use our detailed knowledge of the issues to provide the best combination of analysis, innovation and evaluation for each specific project.

We work with clients to define the problem as the best way to help you effectively manage the solutions.
