About APRI
Ace Policy Research Institute (APRI) is an independent research, advisory, and consultancy firm whose mission is to build institutional capacity and partnerships for research, advocacy, and policy development for evidence-based approaches towards institutional growth and socio-economic transformation.
The founders of APRI strongly believe that there is a disconnection between the academia (the people who do research and innovate) and the policy makers and practitioners. While ‘evidence-based policy making’ is a common phrase thrown around, there is an ever-widening chasm between research, policymaking, and practice. Our mission is to effectively bridge this gap in the most innovative yet, practical manner.
At APRI we believe in the principles and ideals of rigorous research to support institutional growth and socio-economic development of nations with evidence. The pursuit of our mission implores us to undertake timely, accurate research on key policy issues nationally, and effectively sensitizing our primary audiences within and outside government about our findings. APRI’s team competencies are multi-disciplinary to take care of your development needs.
