Welcome to Banyaneer

Are you working in the humanitarian or international development sector? Have you ever required a consultant - for an assessment, an evaluation, or research tasks? Then you may have experienced the challenge of finding a professional with both the local understanding and the technical knowledge required.

As the humanitarian and international development sector has grown, so has the need for external consultants. But as big players often lack the sector-specific understanding and techniques and tend to be expensive, many organizations rely on informal contact to individual experts. Quality and expertise, however, varies considerably.

Banyaneer was founded by a group of experienced humanitarian and development practitioners with a broad understanding of local communities in South-East Asia and sound knowledge of the challenges faced when helping to enhance the peoples’ living conditions across the region.

Our name reflects the way we work: rather than making decisions top-down, successful development always means close collaboration with local communities at every stage of a project. We sit together – sometimes, as it is not uncommon across South-East Asia - under a banyan tree. In this sense, we hope to be able to banyaneer your work in the region. For more information, contact us at info@banyaneer.com.

Our website is under development and will soon feature our full profile, areas of expertise and a resource base for the practitioner in the region – so bookmark www.banyaneer.com now and make sure to drop by again soon.
