Since 2013 MakeShiftPublishing has helped organisations with a public interest heartbeat find the words, images and evidence that move people to act. Formalised as a standalone company in 2020, we now support a broad mix of partners—from UN agencies and EU directorates to frontline INGOs, local CSOs, social impact start ups and even museums—because the craft of humane communication thrives on cross pollination. Our work spans the full spectrum: rigorous qualitative and quantitative research, message and narrative design, long-form storytelling, motion graphics, short-form video and clean, accessible layout. Every assignment begins with a simple rule of thumb: people first. That means plain language over buzz-speak, genuine voices over stock clichés and knowledge transfer baked into the process so clients can fly solo long after hand-over.

Behind the company sits a vetted network of videographers, data visualisers, writers, and UX designers who rank among the best in their fields and share our commitment to transparency and social value. We choose our briefs accordingly: you will not find us burnishing the image of fossil-fuel majors, arms manufacturers, soda giants or dubious financial institutions. Instead, we lend our craft to those improving lives, protecting rights and widening cultural horizons—and we do it in a way that leaves them stronger, not dependent, when the project wraps.
