How we look at the work

How SYNTH works

Research and assessment

Good research reveals what is being overlooked, tests assumptions and makes a question more precise.

Context and strategy

Strategy means understanding the people, institution, history, constraints and possibilities around a problem before deciding what matters.

Development and production

Research and strategy become useful when they shape a programme, policy, organisation, identity, publication, film, exhibition or another form of action.
