So much of development work happens in the in-between.
Between what data shows and what people live.

This month’s #AthenaConnects captures that space: climate realities, farmer needs, evidence that actually helps.

Violence doesn’t begin with an act…it begins with a norm.
And in urban India, many of these norms are so deeply embedded that they shape behaviour long before they surface as violence.

There’s nothing more motivating than knowing our partners value how we walk the path with them.

Our work with the Kailash Satyarthi Children’s Foundation reminds us why thoughtful collaboration, quality, and care matter and why we remain committed to earning that trust.

Data shows patterns, but more importantly, it shows possibilities.
From urban services to climate resilience, we use data to help governments and partners diagnose problems, design solutions, and build tools that help them to act with clarity and confidence.

Cities change. Climates shift. Populations grow. But the need for safe sanitation never disappears.

Across Bangladesh, that need is widening, especially for women, marginalised communities, and sanitation workers who bear the brunt of weak systems.

Not every impact is loud. Some are built quietly, every single day.
As Rahman puts it, it’s about keeping things steady, secure, and running smoothly so everyone can do their best work without delays or disruptions.
Consistency builds trust and that’s what keeps us going.

We’ve all heard it; AI is changing everything.

But in Monitoring and Evaluation, it’s not about replacing analysts; it’s about rethinking how evidence learns, adapts, and speaks back.

Did you know?
👉 AI is already helping farmers predict weather shifts, manage pests, and optimise irrigation.
👉 Most existing evidence focuses on crop production, with far less attention to livestock, fisheries, and broader food systems.
