      <image:caption>We conduct independent policy research on a range of global challenges. Our experts apply rigorous methodologies while responding to policy actors timelines. This enables PoliSync to present research results that challenge business as usual and sparks new thinking in a constructive manner. We work on projects developed in-house, as well as in collaboration with governments, international organisations and other actors. We draw on an extensive network of scholars, practitioners and experts from the field during and following the research. This ensures relevance with what is happening on the ground, and fosters greater uptake of research findings among policy officials.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Data visualisation - Data visualisation</image:title>
      <image:caption>We live in a data-driven world, with increasing demand for evidence-based decision-making. Effective data visualizations can bolster success when communicating research results. Yet most data analysts have quantitative backgrounds, and lack design skills. We support actors as they collect, manage, use and visualize their data. We help actors decide what to measure, and how to capture, analyse and make the most of their data visually. This enables them to tell stories with their data, in support of evidence-based policy-making. Our data experts use the latest software, including Tableau and Power BI, and offer trainings in how to use them. Get in touch to discuss how we can support your data projects and data visualisation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>PoliSync hubs - Three new PoliSync hubs</image:title>
      <image:caption>Amid growing environmental, social, political, and economic pressures, there is an urgent need for evidence-based, human-centered, and multi-sector solutions. Yet steep cuts to multilateral cooperation, humanitarian aid, and sustainable development have created critical gaps—and demand for organisations that can deliver innovative, interdisciplinary, and action-oriented policy responses. In mid-2025, PoliSync launched three new hubs to meet this challenge: Strategic Policy Hub, which drives evidence-based, forward-looking, and silo-breaking solutions across policy issues, and amid mounting global pressures; Humanitarian Connect, advancing integrated approaches at the Humanitarian–Sustainable Development–Peace nexus; and Migration Shift, rethinking migration governance and solutions.  Together, these hubs power research, capacity-building, collaboration, and innovation through global partnerships. They embody PoliSync’s mission to break silos, center lived experience, and harness policy, technology, and communications for systems-level change.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Director: Dr Cecilia Cannon Technical leads: Naledi Hollbruegge (strategy, data analysis) PoliSync’s Strategic Policy Hub channels our founding mission into a center for bold, evidence-based, and forward-looking approaches to international policy. In an era of climate change, conflict, forced migration, and weakened multilateralism—when many actors are forced into short-term, reactive responses—the Hub stays focused on long-term, systems-level impact. It cuts across policy domains and governance levels to drive integrated, innovative, and silo-breaking solutions, grounded in research and designed for real-world problem-solving. Alongside advancing PoliSync’s own cross-cutting projects, the Hub creates space for partners to strengthen policy and stakeholder-engagement skills. Through research, capacity-building, and dialogue, the Strategic Policy Hub supports collective efforts to rethink how global challenges are addressed. Current projects and workshops: Stronger Together: Rebuilding public trust in international cooperation Certificate in Applied AI for Social Good Research mapping &amp; digital tool: Actors working on AI in International Geneva Research: Privileges &amp; immunities in UN agencies and implications for sustainable reform Policy skills workshops: Influence international policy Communicate research effectively Build effective multi-stakeholder partnerships Apply data visualisation in policy &amp; development</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Director: Dr Marie McAuliffe Migration Shift is PoliSync’s hub for reimagining migration systems through rigorous research, data-driven insights, bold policy design, and inclusive engagement. It seeks to transform how migration is understood, governed, and experienced - driving policy innovation, shifting narratives, and centering the voice and leadership of people on the move. Bringing together PoliSync’s strengths in policy research, data visualisation, Tech4Good, capacity building, and storytelling, the hub challenges restrictive, securitised migration approaches and advances forward-looking, human-centered alternatives. From influencing governance to amplifying migrant-led innovation, Migration Shift serves as a resource for understanding migration dynamics, shaping responsive policy, and fostering cross-sector collaboration to catalyse change. Current projects and workshops: Evidence use in economic policymaking: migration as a strategic asset Migration and displacement in UN reform The impacts of migration securitisation Gender implications of migration in an uncertain world Migration Makes Us Stronger: positive migration narratives Geneva Refugees &amp; Migrants Digital Museum: stories of movement, sanctuary, belonging, and transformation Workshops: Innovative policy approaches to address irregular migration</image:caption>

      <image:title>Capacity building workshops - The fundamentals of data visualisation - Why Naledi &amp; Cecilia created this workshop</image:title>
      <image:caption>Written by Cecilia Cannon Working with data can be like trying to cram a bunch of balloons into a small car on a windy day. That’s how I felt often during her 13-month secondment to the UN for its 75th anniversary in 2020. The UN75 initiative invited people around the world to share hopes &amp; fears for the future &amp; to discuss how actors, including the UN, can better work together to address global challenges. Thanks to the amazing UN75 team &amp; UN country/info offices, data streamed in across the year: · 1.3 million survey responses from 193 countries · 1,141 dialogue summaries from 3000+ dialogues in 120 countries We had to clean, analyse &amp; report on the data, with 3 opportunities to present insights to UN Member States. Real-time analysis &amp; reporting on live big data – a daunting, yet worthwhile task. Challenge accepted. Budget for analysis wasn’t an issue. But we struggled to find people who combined strong statistical analysis with design skills. We all felt we weren't doing justice to our wealth of data. Then I met Naledi &amp; her team at the UNDP Data Futures Platform. Read the full story…</image:caption>

Participants will have the opportunity to brainstorm and develop their own ideas for using technology for good in their areas of work. They will learn the methods and processes needed to introduce innovation within a programme setting in a manner that is inclusive and considerate of the complex and multicultural environments many organisations work in, including technology iteration, prototyping, testing and piloting.  The course will conclude with a debate and reflection on the difficulties and challenges of implementing innovation within the development and humanitarian spaces, and how participants facing these challenges can drive innovation within their own organisations and areas of work. The workshop will also provide an opportunity to network and collaborate with like-minded individuals from diverse backgrounds and organisations.</image:caption>
