Thought Leader and Enabler of Social Impact for Long-term Change.
Lusoma is an African word that means community or connectedness. At Lusoma Advisory Services, we support our clients in connecting their passion and partners to better deliver on their mandate. We work with our clients to grow their relevance, have effective systems, and establish proactive strategies that enable them to have meaningful engagement and contribute to the development ecosystem.
Lusoma was born out of the founder’s awakening to the reality of the gap between larger development policy agendas and the practices of local development actors. While local organisations are passionate, they have limited infrastructure, opportunities, and capabilities to influence and inform larger development agendas and partnerships. On the other hand, there has been limited evidence of the policy changes achieved at the local level that can inform and influence global development agendas.
​
From designing social policies to facilitating network management between government and civil society, to resource mobilization for non-profit (s), and social research and data management – Lusoma is weaving a tapestry of social development practice and study both locally and around the globe in multi-cultural scenarios.
