BDI provides briefings, technical assistance, and advisory support to decision-makers around the country, treating our team’s knowledge and expertise as a public good. Through these engagements, we also seek to uplift community voices that may otherwise be excluded from decision-making spaces. This enables policy responses that are not only more inclusive, but more effective, as they reflect a clearer understanding of on-the-ground risks alongside examples of successful intervention. 

Our experts advise a wide range of stakeholders and regularly convene coordination tables, network briefings, and other forums for policy collaboration and dialogue, ensuring that information on political violence informs decision-making and is understood within the broader context.
