Evidence communication & knowledge products
Turning technical analysis into accessible briefs, visuals, and digital products for diverse audiences.
We translate complex evidence into accessible, influential products for diverse audiences, from global technical experts to policymakers, practitioners and the public. Itad has a rich portfolio of publication, dissemination and evidence uptake experience across sectors, formats and channels.
We have consistently transformed evaluation insights into high quality external products, including academic publications, learning briefs, impact stories, microsites, videos, webinars and open access datasets. Our tailored training modules and our evidence microsites, such as those designed for the Global Resilience Programme and for WISH’s Disability Evidence Map, demonstrate our capacity to package learning in formats that both deepen technical understanding and broaden public engagement.
Our dissemination and learning events further illustrate our reach and convening power; from facilitating a global dialogue on Health Systems Strengthening evaluation with speakers from Gavi, the Global Fund and the Global Financing Facility, to delivering a five-day virtual Learning Event for 400 participants under the UK Government’s flagship women’s sexual health programme. These events showcase our ability to create participatory spaces that amplify learning, strengthen communities of practice, and extend the impact of evaluation findings.
We also work effectively with media and communications partners, successfully placing op-eds and creating compelling visual products such as infographics for the Gates Foundation, which have supported global advocacy efforts and increased engagement from organisations such as Gavi. Our written and digital outputs, including stories-of-change publications for the Fleming Fund and widely viewed journal articles, continue to shape debates and inform action at the highest levels, including discussions at the UN General Assembly.
Across our work, we demonstrate a consistent ability to deliver credible, engaging and strategically targeted communication products that maximise evidence uptake.
