International Practice

Government relations at the intersection of US policy, West African politics, and multilateral institutions.

The Case for EKL

The Bridge Most Firms Can’t Build.

Foreign governments and international clients don’t just need advisors. They need someone who speaks the language of Washington and the language of the client country, who knows how decisions actually get made in Congress and in the offices of multilateral institutions.

EKL brings that combination. Real access to the US policy environment. Genuine ties to West Africa. English and French fluency. And the professional discretion international clients expect.

Discretion

International engagements are handled with full confidentiality. Client relationships are not disclosed.

Three Areas

International Practice

01

Diplomatic Engagement

Navigating the US policy environment requires more than connections. EKL maps the stakeholders, builds the approach, and coordinates directly with embassy and Congressional personnel to advance client objectives.

02

Development Consulting

Accessing multilateral funding from USAID, the Millennium Challenge Corporation, or the World Bank rewards preparation. EKL advises clients on how these institutions make decisions and how to position a country or project to meet their criteria.

03

Political Communications & Narrative

How a government is perceived in the Western press shapes investor confidence and diplomatic leverage. EKL builds communications strategies for international audiences in English and French.

Pricing

Scoped to the Work.

International government relations engagements are priced individually. EKL does not publish standard rates for international practice. Every situation is different.
