Practical Action ‒ SP

Lima, Peru

This organisation may not be a traditional think tank. We have included it in this list as we deem it to be a 'boundary' organisation – in other words, it might have some qualities or characterstics of a think tank.

The Latin American Consulting (PAC) area provides independent, professional consultancies to lift people out of poverty with appropriate technologies, good evidence and institutional change. PAC LA belongs to Practical Action, a solid global group with local roots and a high level, experienced and interdisciplinary staff. PAC LA contributes to the self-sustainability of Practical Action.
