Trust Consultancy and Development

Independent consultancy company specialising in third party monitoring (TPM), needs assessment, data analysis and research in the humanitarian domain.

Trust Consultancy and Development (TCD) is an independent consultancy, evaluation and research organization based in Gaziantep, Turkey. Our dedicated team of experienced consultants and researchers supported by our highly qualified management aspires to provide expert, top-quality consultancy, monitoring and training services to international and local NGOs, businesses, donors and third parties wi

th vested interest in different aspects of humanitarian action. Our work addresses the growing demand for third party M&E services in the light of intensified humanitarian response to the escalating civilian suffering in Syria and other parts of the MENA region. However, this increased demand has also added pressure on M&E companies that, trapped in a constant race against time, tend to compromise quality to meet their deadlines. Irrespective of these pressures, TCD remains committed to both high quality work and timely delivery.

Trust Consultancy & Development is actively engaged across the MENA region, designing and delivering Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) that help clients move beyond the numbers to uncover the stories, experiences, needs, and priorities of the communities behind the statistics, in their own words.

𝐈𝐬 𝐚 "𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫" 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 "𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫"? 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐞.

In the field, the two titles get used all the time interchangeably:

Same clipboard
Same tablet
Same "field staff" label on the org chart

But at Trust, we treat them as related roles, not the same role.

An Enumerator:

📋 Administers structured questionnaires 🗣️ Conducts household or individual interviews ✍️ Records responses accurately 🔀 Follows sampling and survey procedures 🔒 Ensures confidentiality and informed consent

A data collector does all of that and more:

🧭 Collects both quantitative and qualitative data. 🗂️ Conducts interviews, observations, FGDs, and KIIs 📍 Captures GPS coordinates and photos, when approved ✅ Verifies data quality in the field, not just after submission 📄 Submits complete and timely reports

The distinction is simple, but it matters for how teams are built and briefed:

Every enumerator is a data collector. Not every data collector is only an enumerator.

What ties both roles together doesn't change: reliable field data, ethical standards, and a shared goal: better data, better insights, and better decisions.

How does your team distinguish between the two?

24/07/2026

Digital transformation is reshaping how humanitarian and development organizations collect, analyze, and act on data.

From mobile data collection platforms and AI-powered analytics to remote sensing and satellite imagery, technology is enabling faster, more reliable, and more ethical evidence generation, even in some of the world's most complex operating environments.

In our latest article, we explore how these innovations are strengthening monitoring and evaluation (M&E), improving decision-making, and supporting humanitarian action across the MENA region, while highlighting the importance of responsible data governance and ethical implementation.

The report says the service was delivered.
But delivery alone doesn't tell the whole story.

The more important question is:
Did people actually reach the service, use it, and trust it?

That distinction separates measuring outcomes from understanding implementation.

In fragile and conflict-affected settings, programs rarely fail overnight. More often, they weaken gradually; a supply chain is disrupted, a health worker becomes unavailable, communities relocate, or confidence in a service declines.

On paper, targets may still be achieved.
On the ground, access and utilization may already be slipping.

This is where third-party monitoring adds value. By independently monitoring implementation, it helps identify operational gaps, verify whether services remain accessible and relevant, and generate evidence that supports timely, informed decision-making.

Technology has made data collection faster and more accessible than ever. The greater challenge is ensuring we ask the questions that reveal what performance indicators alone cannot.

Because successful delivery does not always translate into meaningful access or impact.

What assumptions have you seen change once a program moved from design to implementation?

Evidence does not speak for itself. It is shaped by the ground realities of the people who live it.

At Trust Consultancy and Development, we use Participatory Financial Mapping to better understand the gap between high-level reporting and everyday realities in the communities we work with.

While digital data and financial reviews can show us broad patterns, they do not always capture the human side of an intervention. By bringing community members into mapping sessions, we can better understand market access routes, financial bottlenecks, resource constraints, and the informal dynamics that shape how support is experienced on the ground.

Why participatory methodologies matter in TPM:

Grounded evidence: They help ensure programmes reflect real access patterns, not desk-based assumptions.

True localization: They move communities from being data sources to active contributors in the evaluation process.

Better insight into complexity: They reveal how informal pressures and local realities influence how resources flow.

At Trust, we believe strong monitoring and evaluation is not only about technical accuracy. It is also about methodological integrity, local listening, and evidence that reflects lived reality.

A sincere thank you to our field teams for continuing to deliver rigorous, independent insights from the communities that need them most.

Behind every humanitarian data point is a person, a community, and a field team working under extraordinary circumstances.

From power outages and connectivity disruptions to difficult access and high-stress environments, humanitarian data collection in Gaza goes far beyond completing a survey. It requires resilience, adaptability, and an unwavering commitment to delivering reliable information that supports informed humanitarian action.

This carousel highlights some of the operational realities faced by field teams and why understanding these challenges is essential for improving humanitarian data systems and decision-making.

Reliable data doesn't happen by accident—it is built through the dedication of people working in some of the world's most challenging environments.

Artificial Intelligence is changing how humanitarian organizations approach Third-Party Monitoring (TPM). But the real question isn't whether AI can replace human expertise; it's where it can make human expertise even stronger.

In complex and access-constrained environments, TPM teams face constant challenges: limited access, compressed timelines, fragmented information, and increasing demands for accountability.

When applied responsibly, AI can help streamline many operational tasks, including:

⦿ Pre-fieldwork planning

⦿ Risk screening and contextual analysis

⦿ Translation and transcription

⦿ Data quality assurance

⦿ Continuous monitoring

⦿ Document review

⦿ Thematic analysis

⦿ Knowledge management

However, AI should be viewed as a decision-support tool, not a decision-maker.

The quality of monitoring still depends on experienced field teams, sound methodologies, local context, ethical data collection, and professional judgment. Technology can improve efficiency, but credibility, accountability, and trust remain human responsibilities.

How is your organization approaching AI in monitoring and evaluation?

⦿Have you integrated AI into your TPM or MEL workflows?

⦿Which use cases have delivered real value?

⦿What risks or limitations should the sector continue to address?

We'd love to hear your perspectives and experiences.

As communities across the world mark Eid Al-Adha, a time that centers on sacrifice, generosity, and collective responsibility, it is worth reflecting on a question at the heart of third-party monitoring: who should ultimately benefit from the evidence we collect?

TPM produces data for donors, reports for implementers, and accountability insights for programs. Yet the communities at the center of every monitoring assignment, the people whose time is given, whose voices are heard, and whose realities shape the findings, should remain central to how that evidence is understood and used.

This Eid, as we reflect on care, integrity, and responsibility, we are reminded that monitoring systems are strongest when they keep communities at the center.

Wishing all members of this community and their families a peaceful and blessed Eid Al-Adha. 🌙

👇 How does your organization keep communities at the center of TPM practice?

Wishing our partners, clients, and community a blessed and joyful Eid al-Adha. May this season bring peace, reflection, and renewed hope.

Eid Mubarak from Trust Consultancy and Development.
