Select for consequence
A development is selected when it could alter policy, institutions, public services, investment, livelihoods, knowledge or the distribution of risk. Prominence and novelty alone are insufficient.
Publication charter
Publication standards and reading formats
The Daily Strategic Briefing, the two weekly publications and the continuing climate preparedness record apply the same standards to evidence, dates and corrections. Each serves a distinct reading need, from concise daily analysis to weekly synthesis and a continuously revised public record.
Readers and uses
Evidence prepared for scrutiny and practical use
Public officials, researchers, journalists, civic institutions and professional bodies can use concise daily analysis, full weekly editions, briefing notes, printable PDFs and a continuing evidence record. Each format identifies the principal finding, its evidential limits, the institutions concerned and the decision at stake. The publications remain publicly available for citation and scrutiny.

Common standard
Three tests before publication
Keep the claim within the evidence
Event date, publication date, place and institutional scope are distinguished. Demonstration, proposal, forecast, official claim and editorial inference are described separately.
Make corrections visible
A material error is corrected openly. The climate preparedness record uses numbered revisions, status definitions and a public history so readers can see what changed and consult earlier revisions.
Geographic scope
How the geographic focus is set
Worldwide evidence · stated geographic focus
Climate Across Systems
Climate questions may draw on evidence from any part of the world.
Every edition names its geographical focus and examines the laws, institutions, sectors and places needed to understand that question. Kenya, Africa and the Global South remain recurring areas of attention.
Open the series →Kenya · Global SouthGovernance Research Brief
The brief is grounded in public administration in Kenya and across the Global South.
Research from elsewhere is used when it sharpens a question, supplies a credible comparison or tests an assumption against the law and capability of the institutions concerned.
