Albany Associates Information

USING COMMUNICATIONS TO SOLVE COMPLEX PROBLEMS IN CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS Albany works with people and communities in some of the toughest places in the world. We provide advice and training for governments, civil society organisations, and key leaders tailored specifically to local circumstances and culture. We believe in local solutions and our well-established networks across Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia give us the partners and access we need to get to grips with them, We work closely with our local partners to build grassroots resilience to the drivers of crisis and conflict and to find home-grown solutions to the problems that cause them. Our philosophy is that robust two-way communications provide the primary mechanism for solving problems and building resilience to social, economic and political shocks. Animating civil society, or the public space between the state, market, community and family, has become central to our method of work. We call it comprehensive communications. What drives Albany is our purpose "to lead in the conception and delivery of outcomes that strengthen the resilience of civil societies in challenging environments, through the medium of Comprehensive Communications".
