3. Shekinah evaluates the success of its work through formal evaluation and engagement with local academics.

4. Shekinah pilots new and innovative tools and models, specifically identified as effective from current and emerging research.

5. Shekinah welcomes social researchers, academics and students into the organisation to conduct safe and ethical research.
