» Social Development

The Sofia Consulting services in social development are generally provided to governmental and not-for-profit organisations at national or subnational levels. Regional governments tend increasingly to be responsible for the delivery of a range of social interventions and require advice and support on a range of areas relating to social development.

Sofia Consulting Group services include:

• Need Assessment and Social Policy analysis
• Analysis of social capital and social strategy development
• Social policy system planning, management and evaluation
• Social and economic policy, programme and project implementation and monitoring
• Institutional capacity building, organisational change management and social support service arrangements;
