World Pop

We develop and implement open, robust and peer-reviewed geospatial methods for mapping population distributions, demographics and dynamics, with a principle focus on low and middle income countries.

Population, Health and Wellbeing (PHeW)

We combine expertise in population, health and wellbeing with the application of technical excellence in geographic information systems (GIS), spatial analysis and qualitative methods.
