Established in 1994 Public Affairs Centre (PAC) conducts action research by using data analytics effectively. PAC pioneered the Social Accountability Tools (SATs) which is well received and accepted globally. In doing so PAC ensures that it includes the last mile-the community by giving "voice to the voiceless". As a Think Tank it constantly develops evidence-based research for public policies which has actionable points for scalability and applicability.

Currently it focusses on key SDGs to include primary education, health, livelihood and skills and gender which overarches all the SDGs. In short, it conducts effective research to provide accurate and judicious recommendations on key policy concerns. To do this PAC ensures that data analytics is woven into all its research projects. Through the policy engagements and communications activities it effectively unpacks and conveys key action points to relevant stakeholders.
