International development is changing . . .

The events of 2025 have created a large pool of talented, motivated independent consultants in international development. Institutions matter, but real expertise comes from the brilliant individuals we’ve all worked with and learned from. These consultants exist worldwide.

That’s why we started Reframed Learning LLC. We don’t do offices, significant overhead, or permanent teams. Instead, we build project-by-project, pulling together the right mix of consultants for each client. At the center of our approach is locally led expertise—national consultants who bring the context, the relationships, and the long-term commitment that make the difference.

Locally driven. Quality-driven insights. Affordable solutions.

  • Locally Led

    We prioritize locally led expertise—partnering with national consultants who bring deep contextual knowledge, trusted relationships, and long-term commitment to the countries where we work.

  • Outstanding Quality

    We are experienced consultants who design, manage, and evaluate large-scale education programs. Our international and local experts combine technical skills, field experience, and strong stakeholder relationships to deliver results aligned with client needs.

  • Low Cost

    Reframed Learning operates without the overhead of a traditional firm — no rented office, no full-time staff. We work project by project, assembling teams of experienced consultants tailored to each client’s needs.

    Research, Evaluation, and Communication

    RCTs. QEDs. Complex survey design. Effect size. Theory of Change.

    We love this stuff, but understand technical expertise is only valuable if concepts can be communicated in accessible terms to audiences such as local teams, local governments, and global researchers.
