Preston Associates International Development Limited (Preston Associates) is a development sector research organisation, established in 2013 and headquartered in Abuja, Nigeria. We are committed to enhancing development outcomes in Africa, especially in health, governance, education, gender, child and youth development. We provide evidence for improved development outcomes through research; and we specialise in providing technical support to our clients in the areas of programme design, implementation, monitoring, evaluation, accountability, and learning across the development sector spectrum.
For a decade, our engagements have cut across evidence generation and use for system optimization through Monitoring, Evaluations, Research, Accountability, Sustainability and Learning, performance management, program and system evaluations, impact assessments, governance systems (including accountability mechanisms and inter-sectoral coordination frameworks), and cost model analyses, etc. Our clients, partners, and donors consist of international and domestic non-governmental organisations, national and state-level government agencies/parastatals.
Preston’s unique strength lies in the ability to work concurrently in multiple states and countries while ensuring prompt and quality deliverables to our clients. In our home country (Nigeria), we have undertaken projects in both rural and urban settings (including marginalized and displaced populations) in all states spanning the six geopolitical zones in the country. In other parts of Africa, we rely on our strong partnerships with other like-minded, technically and organizationally sound firms to make evidence-based impact for development.
