Since 2014, Accuracy Matters has collaborated with international NGOs such as International IDEA, UNICEF Innocenti and the World Food Programme (WFP), helping them to deliver critical projects. Through providing expert editors, writers and proofreaders, we’ve played a vital role in supporting their missions. This week’s blog highlights our work with these organisations and the difference we’ve made together.
International IDEA: Supporting global democracy
Since 2017, we’ve partnered with International IDEA to provide copy-editing and proofreading services for reports, web content and internal communications. Our commitment to quality has been recognised through a five-year contract renewal.
Client feedback
‘Accuracy Matters always delivers good work and manages to keep track of our editorial standards, makes good language changes and checks the accuracy and formats of references.’
Key highlights:
- Copy-editing Deliberative Democracy and Climate Change: Exploring the Potential of Climate Assemblies in the Global South: A key report exploring the potential of climate assemblies in the Global South to improve climate policies and action.
- Proofreading fortnightly website updates in 2021 and 2022 on the Global Monitor for the Impact of COVID-19 on Democracy and Human Rights: We ensured the regular updates were accurate and consistent as the pandemic proceeded – and worked on a full-scale edit of the site after more than a year’s worth of country-by-country updates had been posted.
UNICEF Innocenti: Driving change for children
Since 2014, we’ve partnered with UNICEF Innocenti – Global Office of Research and Foresight, supporting its research on children’s rights and social development. Our work has involved writing, editing, copy-editing and proofreading reports, briefs, papers and other copy, ensuring consistency and clarity in its publications.
- Writing and copy-editing the Best of UNICEF Research reports: We wrote and copy-edited this flagship report in 2021 and 2022, summarising cutting-edge research and working closely with the UNICEF project team to streamline its process.
- Writing and editing the UNICEF Gender Solutions report: Our team reviewed data, interview transcripts and award submissions to write and edit this complex report, which highlights UNICEF’s investment in gender equality research. We also copy-edited and proofread the report – providing the full end-to-end editorial service. Client feedback emphasised our efficiency and the high quality of our work.
Client feedback
‘Accuracy Matters’ quality of work was top-notch, and its efficiency and achievement in our timeframe was superb.’
WFP: Promoting global food security
Since 2019, Accuracy Matters has provided editorial services to WFP, supporting the social protection team, Office of Evaluation, Office of Internal Audit, Regional Bureau Bangkok, WFP Bangladesh, WFP Cambodia and WFP Myanmar. We’re proud of the ongoing relationship and the trust WFP places in us to deliver accurate and timely editorial support.
Key highlights:
- Proofreading the Global Report on Food Crises: In 2023 and 2024, we provided essential proofreading services for this comprehensive report, working closely with the client’s editorial team to ensure accuracy.
- Copy-editing a 240,000-word suite of reports: We co-ordinated the complex copy-editing process of numerous reports across tight deadlines, delivering high-quality work within budget. Regular contact with the client and open lines of communication were key to the success of this project.
By offering tailored writing, editing and proofreading services, Accuracy Matters plays a crucial role in helping international NGOs achieve their goals – and we’re proud to support these organisations in their mission to improve lives worldwide.
