What we do
Cabal Group delivers strategic solutions for crises in a complex geopolitical world — analysing data to tell a compelling story for decision makers, designing innovative and practical solutions for crises and fragile contexts, and inspiring real change through coalition-building and political influence.
Analyse
Let your data tell a compelling story to engage decision makers.
We help organisations make sense of complexity by uncovering insights, evaluating impact, and turning data into clear, actionable narratives. Our work enables smarter strategies, sharper advocacy, and stronger accountability — especially in crisis and fragile settings where decisions matter most.
We’ve led independent reviews of international engagement in conflict-affected countries, assessing how diplomatic, development, and humanitarian efforts align and perform under pressure. Our evaluations have helped multilateral agencies improve how they listen to and remain accountable to affected populations. We’ve also conducted in-depth assessments of localisation strategies and emergency funding mechanisms — unpacking how global policy ambitions translate into real-world outcomes across diverse contexts.
Whether through strategic reviews, system evaluations, or evidence synthesis, we ensure that data doesn't just sit in reports — it drives decisions and deepens impact.
Design innovative but realistic solutions.
We work closely with partners to design strategies, tools, and systems that are not only ambitious but grounded in the realities of fragile and crisis-affected contexts. Our approach is collaborative, adaptive, and deeply contextual — ensuring that solutions are practical, politically feasible, and locally owned.
This has included designing strategies for locally led development and humanitarian action, complete with phased action plans and custom-built tools to assess capacity and support institutional strengthening. We’ve also advised on how to redesign rapid response mechanisms to make them more timely, flexible, and responsive to the needs of local actors.
Whether it's a policy roadmap, a capacity-building framework, or a crisis response mechanism, our solutions are built for the real world — and the people who must deliver them.
Resolve
Convene, facilitate, and shape real change.
We help shift mindsets and spark momentum by supporting coalitions, elevating political leadership, and amplifying bold but credible ideas. Our work often sits at the intersection of policy and politics — creating the space, framing, and narrative needed to move from dialogue to action.
We’ve supported high-level panels, secretariats, and global taskforces to shape strategic agendas, craft persuasive advocacy narratives, and broker consensus among diverse stakeholders. In politically fragile environments, we work behind the scenes to build alignment and legitimacy — always focused on unlocking progress that lasts.
Whether behind a podium or around a negotiation table, we bring clarity, creativity, and credibility to moments that matter.
