About Us

Moving CSR beyond good intentions

Orange CSR Research Worldwide is an international CSR research and advisory organization headquartered in East Africa, with its regional headquarters in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Who We Are

An independent voice on corporate responsibility

We focus on generating reliable knowledge and actionable intelligence around how organizations interact with communities, employees, customers, governments, the environment and other stakeholders.

Our work is designed to move CSR beyond good intentions and into measurable, evidence-based impact.

Corporate responsibility increasingly requires organizations to demonstrate not only what they contribute, but also the outcomes and value created for stakeholders. Research in Tanzania has similarly identified challenges around systematic CSR reporting, measurement and disclosure — a gap Orange exists to close.

Our Approach

A disciplined route from question to conclusion.

  • Research — framing the question and designing the study
  • Evidence — collecting credible primary and secondary data
  • Measurement — applying indicators and frameworks
  • Insight — interpreting what the data actually shows
  • Action — translating findings into decisions
  • Impact — tracking what changed as a result

Why Orange

Turning CSR activities into measurable impact

Organizations invest significant resources in CSR programmes but often cannot answer the questions that matter most.

Who actually benefited?
What changed because of the programme?
Was the investment effective?
What is the community’s perception?
How does the programme compare with industry standards?
What should be improved?
Can the impact be measured?
How can CSR investment support long-term development?

We do not simply ask “What did you do?”
We ask: “What changed?”

Orange helps organizations answer these questions through structured research, data collection, analysis, benchmarking and impact assessment.
