LDT has an experienced professional and academic research team that specialises in social research, human geography, and creative methodologies.
We have wide-ranging experience conducting research within the voluntary, community, commercial and government sectors as well as with universities and artists in academic settings.
We bring expertise and insight on topics including (but not limited to) cities, communities, networks, and infrastructures; social and cultural interrelations and superdiversity; urban space and place, including pop-up and meanwhile spaces; sustainability, responses to climate change, and human connections to the natural environment.
We offer a robust and creative approach that draws on a suite of social science and arts-based methods. Methodologies we use range from longitudinal surveys to creative participatory workshops. We prioritise dissemination and ensuring the research we do has an impact. We work closely with policymakers, publics, and stakeholders to ensure research evidence can be understood and taken forward whether that be through reports, workshops, events, and exhibitions.
We are professionals in monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and we can evaluate your project from start to finish or provide guidance on how to develop your monitoring plan or Theory of Change.
