About Synaps Network

Synaps is a research laboratory, born to develop innovative forms of knowledge production. Our work centers on global socioeconomic concerns. Our priority topics, which we experience first hand, are: ‣ Everyday economics, notably the question of how vulnerable people access basic necessities, jobs, and financial services. ‣ The environment, especially adaptations when it comes to water management, energy use, and food security ‣ Technology, used to monitor, reduce, and rationalize our consumption of key resources, including information. Our activities form three complementary branches: ‣ Synaps Knowledge focuses on research. We conduct fieldwork among communities grappling with social problems, to find solutions on their terms. ‣ Synaps Labs centers on data science, user experience, and visual design. We build tools, notably software, that make information easier to process. ‣ Synaps Academy hosts our training programs. We hire young professionals locally, train them on the job, and transfer key skills to peer organizations.
