Calyx Communications

 We offer services in research communications, 
knowledge mobilization and program learning
for organizations driving health and social impact. 

I'm Anita Dubey, the owner of Calyx Communications. 

My work is focused on translating knowledge so that people make decisions to create better lives for themselves, their communities or societies.

For more than 20 years, I've worked for foundations, advocacy organizations, research centres, medical publishers and media outlets in North America, Europe and Africa.  As a consultant, I work with a network of like-minded collaborators around the globe.

Trained in public health, biology and journalism, I specialize in health research and evaluation, with experience in education and economic development in low- and middle-income countries. I have worked on systems change approaches that prioritize gender and disability inclusion.

Do you think your study results, evaluation or implementation experience could benefit others working in the same field?

Calyx can help. Working alongside with you, I will help you figure out who to reach, how to reach them and how to get your message across effectively. I apply audience research and years of experience to create evidence-informed guides, policy briefs, news releases reports, websites and much more. 

My experience in health research is broad. Recent projects have focused on community health, mental health, and women and children's health. I've also created content on all types of clinical studies, as well as genetics and neuroscience research. 

Yet I'm versatile enough to cover other topics, ranging from education to financial inclusion and agriculture in LMICs.

"Anita brought exceptional professionalism, adaptability, and a deep understanding of community health policy to her role documenting key proCHW policy wins. Her ability to engage a wide range of stakeholders—with clarity, empathy, and cultural sensitivity—was instrumental in the success of our Burkina Faso case study.

Anita’s sharp analytical skills and thoughtful storytelling brought our work to life in ways that resonate with both technical and non-technical audiences. ....We are proud to continue working with her and highly recommend her for any work that requires strategic communication, research, and policy insight.
