Our work often includes:
- Investigation, thorough diagnostics, scenario and contingency planning
- Advising on immediate steps necessary to stabilize and stay on top of the situation
- Developing holistic special situation strategies to preserve/recover value and minimize risk
- Serving as an experienced command center: bringing together and managing multidisciplinary teams of experts for coordinated and often multi-jurisdictional campaigns and controlling the cost of effort
- Representing the client in negotiations with various stakeholders to resolve the situation or issue
- Coordinating communication in special situations
We regularly work in advisory roles (often alongside legal counsel and other client advisors) contributing our experience, investigative expertise, and intelligence-based insights to co-create and implement integrated conflict resolution and recovery strategies.
Security & Stability Programmes for Governments
In the most challenging environments, Privy Consul helps governments research, develop, implement and evaluate strategies and interventions that deal with complex security and stability problems.
We help governments develop appropriate policies and programmes that have a transformative impact in fragile and conflict-affected societies.
Based on our experience and conceptual design, we have developed a specialised approach toward monitoring, evaluation and project diagnostics for security sector programme interventions.
In order to do this, we put forth a bespoke human terrain 'metrics' that assesses the overall strategic human terrain context, the capacity of the countries' judiciary, intelligence, and law enforcement in the human terrain field and the extent of the coordination between them.
Additionally, we devise a bespoke human terrain system framework and a Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) strategy, a risk matrix and a menu of activities your operations can implement in the future. This allows you to gain a strategic overview of your engagements with the local population, and to measure your impact of Human Terrain activities and design relevant future activities.
