About
Hussain Sharifi
Independent research and special projects. London.
First-Class Honours in Politics and International Relations, SOAS.
Independent work across research, operations and special projects.
What the work has been
Difficult questions, quietly handled.
Source checking, counterparty and provider research, coordination and document control.
How the work is done
Evidence first. Uncertainty left visible.
The method is the same five moves whatever the subject: frame the question, build the source map, test the claims, organise the evidence, deliver a usable next step.
Technology can accelerate enquiry. It cannot supply judgement. Work is undertaken where claims require scrutiny, consequences must be understood and discretion matters. Evidence informs the conclusion. Uncertainty remains explicit. Responsibility remains human.
What I answer for
You work directly with me.
I take the work on personally and I answer for it personally. There is no team, no account manager and no queue.
I research the matter, write the work and answer for it. If I can help, I will say what the scope would be. If I cannot, I will say so plainly.
No analytics, anywhere on this site
No tracking, no measurement tags and no third-party scripts. Nothing here follows you off the page.
One matter, one use
What you send about one matter is used to answer that matter and nothing else.
Stated limits
Where a question needs a regulated professional, that is said plainly and the work stops at that line.
Nothing illustrative is passed off as real
Every worked example on this site is labelled as a composite. There are no case studies, no client names and no numbers attributed to work that has not been published.
