How we work
We believe the best partnerships are built on shared purpose, openness and trust. Every partner is different, and that’s why we work closely with partners to understand their context, tailor solutions around their needs, and bring the right expertise to the table.
In all cases, we aim to be thoughtful, practical and clear about what support is needed and what LSHTM can add.
Education consultancy
LSHTM also works with selected partners on education, training and capacity strengthening in public and global health.
This includes support with short courses, bespoke training, curriculum and programme development, staff development, licensing and co-delivery arrangements, and the exploration of new educational initiatives and partnerships.

How do I know if I need consultancy or research?
Consultancy draws on existing expertise to provide advice, analysis or other specialist input.
Where a project is intended to generate new knowledge, it will be supported as commissioned or contract research. You can find more information on this on the contract and commissioned research page.
If you’re not sure which route is the best fit, we would be happy to discuss this with you.
